28 SURRENDERING
OUR SORROW
by Marianne Williamson
All of us yearn for
happiness and love,
and sometimes we find
it. Yet most of us
are visited at some
point by sorrow as
well. A relationship,
a job, a particular
circumstance brought
us happiness—but then
something went wrong.
At other times, we can’t
put our finger on why,
but we feel no happiness
and we feel no love.
In this special feature
Marianne Williamson
shares her insights on
suffering and sorrow.

32 BOOSTING YOUR
SELF-WORTH:
ACKNOWLEDGING
YOUR
UNDERLYING
COMMITMENTS
by Nancy Levin
As we do the
work of exposing
our unconscious
commitments, we
gain the ability to see
and tell ourselves the
truth. We can step
into a greater sense of
worthiness—one that’s
filled with compassion
and gratitude for our
child-self’s beliefs and
commitments and
commit to what we truly
deserve as adults.
