“Please do not cast blame on yourself…To heap regret and recrimination on yourself misses the entire point of what it means to be human. We all fail at one time or another. We all fall short of our own teachings and beliefs. We all make mistakes. That is because we are all human. Know that you are normal to fall short of your own grand vision, and you will inherit a valuable life lesson. That’s what life is for. It creates a framework for us so that we can learn from our mistakes. Of course, there are no mistakes if we use these experiences wisely. Every mistake carries within it the seed of true wisdom. The mistake is that you give yourself a hard time over it. The mistake is that you don’t learn from your mistakes. The mistake is that you let fear stop you from trying to be more. If you do not fail, then you have not tried.”

~William L. Murtha, in “Dying for a Change”

Compiler’s Note: This book is a riveting true story of the author’s fight to survive hypothermia and drowning in the freezing waters off the coast of Britain. In the midst of this near-death experience he suddenly became aware of a Presence that engaged him in an enlightening and heart-warming conversation. While struggling to stay alive, he effectively re-lived many pivotal times in his past and had every question he had ever asked about life answered with complete clarity. I found it to be the type of book that once you start reading it you can’t bring yourself to put it down. It reminds me of the original “Conversations with God, Book 1″ because of the truly profound nature of the teachings delivered to the author. For these reasons I highly recommend it, as not only is it a very entertaining read, but it’s also a valuable spiritual growth resource.
