I will have faith that the innermost places in me can never be destroyed

We all carry it within us; supreme strength, the fullness of wisdom, unquenchable
joy. It is never thwarted and cannot be destroyed. But it is hidden deep, which
is what makes life a problem.

--Huston Smith

How does one lose touch with his strength, his wisdom, and his joy? Perhaps it is in
the nature of humanity. Our most profound qualities are hidden deep. They never
go away, but we cannot always find them. There may be nothing wrong with us when
we lose touch. It doesn't have to mean that we are "bad" for getting depressed
or for feeling inadequate. Who doesn't have that problem? It is the nature of
life that we sometimes feel this way. This program helps us unearth the
resources hidden within us.

When we cannot find those reassuring feelings of strength and wisdom and joy, we may think they are gone forever. We even doubt we ever had them or could have them again. But they are still there. They
cannot be destroyed. And when we regain contact we know they have been with us
all along.

I will have faith that the innermost places in me can never be destroyed.
