Quotes about Willingness

Willingness is there when "I" doesn't want to.

Even in the running away from hurting, there is hurting.
In opening unprotected to the experience
that is enslaving you with its torment,
there is the willingness to be free.
Are you willing? Or do you just want to
wait until the world  finally gets it and does it your way?

Yet early next morning he searches madly for the bottle he misplaced the night before."

"it was only a matter of being willing to believe in a Power Greater than myself.  Nothing more was required of me to make my beginning.
