Quotes about Possibility

After a few (or many) bad relationships, it's so easy to shut down, give up, and stop believing that the right person is out there for us. Our hearts yearn to fall in love, but our minds insist it's not possible, and we enter into a tug-of-war with ourselves. It's as if one part of us is screaming, "Yes! I deserve a great relationship!" while another part insists, "I'llnever find him or her." When our beliefs contradict our desires, we experience an inner conflict that not only paralyzes us, but can actually prevent us from recognizing the possibilities for love that exist all around us.

When deep down in the core of your being you believe that your soulmate exists, there is no limit to the ways he or she can enter your life.

It's the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voice could be that difference.

When we mourn those who die young - those who have been robbed of time - we weep for lost joys.  We weep for opportunities and pleasures we ourselves have never known.  We feel sure that somehow that young body would have known the yearning delight for which we searched in vain all our lives.  We believe that the untried soul, trapped inside its young prison, might have flown free and known the joy we still seek.  We say that life is sweet, its satisfactions deep.  All this we say, as we sleepwalk through our time and through years of days and nights.  We let time cascade over us like a waterfall, believing it to be never ending.  Yet each day that touches us, and every man in the world, is unique; irredeemable; over.  And just another Monday.  Ah, but those lost Mondays of our young dead friend!  How much better they would have been!  Years pass. Decades pass.  And living has not been done…

The possibility of stepping into a higher plane
is quite real for everyone. It requires no force
or effort or sacrifice. It involves little more than
changing our ideas about what is normal.

Good movies make you care, make you believe in possibilities again.

In every moment of our existence, we are in that field of all possibilities where we have access to an infinity of choices.

While our ancestors knew of only one true way, we have a cornucopia of spiritual and psychological and physical possibilities.

Subatomic particles exist in all possible states until they are observed - at which point something definite emerges from the soup of possibilities.

Consciousness is the basis of all life and the field of all possibilities.  Its nature is to expand and unfold its full potential.  The impulse to evolve is thus inherent in the very nature of life.

once you allow the possibility by removing your limitations.

A thing is only impossible until someone does it.

Compare birth with death, compare death with life; compare what is possible with what is not possible and compare what is not possible with what is possible; because there is, there is not, and because there is not, there is.

In the face of adversity, uncertainty and conflicting sensory information,
I hereby pledge to remain ever mindful of the magical, infinite, loving reality
I live in. A reality that conspires tirelessly in my favor.

As a Being of Light, I hereby resolve to live, love and be happy, at all costs, no matter what, with reverence and kindness for All. So be it!

The possible ranks higher than the actual.

I adopted a begging posture that suggested genteel poverty combined with a certain affable nonchalance. People found this irresistible. They lavished money on me. Within days I exceeded ten dollars an hour. I began to save money and even, following Blue’s lead, tithed to the less fortunate. I became less pessimistic, thought less about how cruel the streets can be. I actually considered begging a legitimate career possibility.

'Impossible' is not a scientific term.

New neurological research indicates that humans’ tremendous brainpower, even operating below ten percent of our capacity, results not just from biochemistry but from the brain’s impressive ability to function as a holographic data storage and retrieval system (a “hard-drive”) that employs different light angles to read information (“software”). This implies ... that the brain is a sophisticated holographic biocomputer that operates through electromagnetic frequencies. Not surprisingly, DNA has been shown to function very similarly. Human biology may thus be considered electromagnetic at the level of its manifestation from the torsion life-wave that sustains it. As Deepak Chopra has observed, human cells, far from being merely functional vessels, are in actuality electromagnetic fields of possibility and potential.

The man who says a thing cannot be done is invariably right, for he will never do it.

It began with the Wisdom of Foolishness, a commitment to remain fluid, receptive, in process, part of the Membrane of Things as I struck out on that spiritual Route 66, the Experience Trail, determined to follow it to the end. It began with yours truly spontaneously ceasing to be myself and becoming someone else, assuming in the blink of an “I” the role of a drifter, a rolling stone, a wayward mariner lone and visionary on the High Seas of Chance and Possibility.

I see my life as an unfolding set of opportunities to awaken.

Whatever our wildest dreams may be, they only scratch the surface of what is possible.

"IF" is a big word, it should have more letters. - Exsultare Fenix (1982)

With the power of soul, anything is possible. 
With the power of you, anything you wanna do. 

Man is so made that when anything fires his soul, impossibilities vanish.

There comes a time in the life of every human when he or she must decide to risk "his life, his fortune, and his sacred honor" on an outcome dubious. Those who fail the challenge are merely overgrown children, can never be anything else.

Jill Boardman encountered her personal challenge —  and accepted it — at 3:47 that afternoon. (UC)

Life is like a stand you take for someone or something - a stand you take FOR someone, towards someone, rather than it being an internal state which you represent with the word "love."  If that were true, if just that little bit were true, the distance between you and the mastery of love would be very short.  You and I could bring forth the phenomenon of love by virtue of a declaration, "I love you," where the declaration was a stand, a commitment and we could see that that was not some "thing" called love, but an opening, a possibility, a clearing in which our
experiences could show up as an expression of the declaration, of the stand, of the commitment, of the context.  If all that were really possible, then the distance between us and mastering love is pretty short.  You see, what shows up in a stand validates the stand.  If a doubt shows up in the space of something for which you stand, it shows up as an expression of the stand, that is to say it shows up for you as something to handle out of your stand, not as something contrary to that for which you stand.   So if love in our relationships was a clearing in which life became present, even what we ordinarily think of as a negative circumstance, in a clearing created by a declaration of love, where the declaration is something for which you stand, even a so-called negative circumstance does not show up in opposition to that for which you stand, but shows up as something to be handled within the stand.  

I know you're sitting there saying "gee i wish it were that easy" and I'm saying it might be something very close to that easy...just like that.   And I'm inviting you into this domain of possibility where you don't know the answers, where relationship and love exist like a question.   I know you think that love is a set of emotions and moods and thoughts and attitudes and outlooks and feelings. And I'm inviting you to consider the possibility that that simply is one interpretation not one with which you are stuck. that you do not need to live the rest of your life without love when you don't have that set of feelings which you have heretofore described as love. ...that it might be possible to bring love into your life, like a creation, like something for which you could be responsible, like something you could bring forth on your our own as a matter of declaration and as a matter of taking a stand. and that you could bring love into those circumstance in your life when the relationships are most difficult, most problematic.  And you could do it as a simple act of being where being is that for which you are willing to stand. and that the stand comes forth in a declaration and exists behind the declaration as a stand.
