The following quote/lesson is from 'Heart Advice, Weekly Quotes From Pema Chodron'.
SHIFT YOUR ALLEGIANCE
"At some point, we need to stop identifying with our weaknesses
and shift our allegiance to our basic goodness.
It's highly beneficial to understand that our limitations
are not absolute and monolithic, but relative and removable.
The wisdom of buddha nature is available to us at any time."
