September theme : Invitation

Our theme for services and events this month is 'Invitation'. Here, we share some inspiring words of wisdom and some questions to give you food for thought.

Words of Wisdom

‘Love isn't something natural. Rather it requires discipline, concentration, patience, faith, and the overcoming of narcissism. It isn't a feeling, it is a practice.’ 

Eric Fromm

‘Change is not a threat to your life, but an invitation to live.’ 

Adrienne Rich

'Mythology tells us that where you stumble, there your treasure is... where it seems most challenging lies the greatest invitation to find deeper and greater power in ourselves.'

Joseph Campbell

'The day comes when remaining the same becomes more painful than the risk to grow. And when that happens there are many goodbyes. We leave old patterns, old friends, old lovers, old ideas, and some cherished beliefs. Loss and growth are so often one and the same.' Phoebe Eng
