“It’s the truth that frees each one of us. So when you’re sitting there, retched and overwhelmed, anxious, in whatever tormenting state may be present when you’re just certain that there won’t be any end to the pain, then, just to see that ‘oh, I can be aware of this, I can tell myself the truth of how this is, it doesn’t matter that this is my experience’. It doesn’t matter whether we’re retched or soaring with insight and spiritual strength. What really matters is the relationship that we have with each experience.” –Trudy Goodman
