It is one of life’s great paradoxes that the things we don’t want to look at in ourselves are the very things we need to look at in order to know ourselves better and to become more fully who we are. The feelings that make us want to run away are buried treasure full of energy and inspiration if we are willing to look.

Whatever shape they come in, and no matter how scary they seem, these messengers bring the information we need in order to grow. Source: Daily Om
