The flame burns within. Honour it.

"If there is a struggle, it is against struggling. Within is a light that comes from infinity. You are surrounded by it. Untouched by the clamour, unwavering even in the strongest gale it burns with constancy. When you struggle you struggle against it. Against your inmost self.
You know what is best for you yet your conscious mind is so full of stratagems that you have no time for your internal rhythms.

"Can you accept yourself as you are? Or must you change yourself before you are acceptable? If so you’re in for a disappointment. You cant change yourself. Only by truly being yourself can you change.

"Do you secretly fear you’re stupid? Be stupid. There is great wisdom in simplicity.
Are you obsest with making money, providing for your family? What are you providing for? Their needs or your self-image? Look at the rich, does outer security bring inner peace?
Do exams overwhelm you? Let life take its course. Pace your study. If you find your work burdensome, consider whether this is the right course for you.
Does nothing go right? Something may be telling you to change direction.
Is a relationship not working? You have a right to change yourself. Neither dictate to others, nor allow them to dictate to you.

"The flame burns within. Honour it."
