Melanie Guikema > Melanie's Quotes

“When we think we have been hurt by someone in the past, we build up defenses to protect ourselves from being hurt in the future. So the fearful past causes a fearful future and the past and future become one. We cannot love when we feel fear.... When we release the fearful past and forgive everyone, we will experience total love and oneness with all.”
― Gerald G. Jampolsky

“You must learn to let go. Release the stress. You were never in control anyway.”

“Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.”
