In any kind of relationship we can make the assumption that others know what we think, and we don’t have to say what we want. They are going to do what we want because they know us so well. If they don’t do what we want, what we assume they should do, we feel hurt and think, “How could you do that? You should know.” Again, we make the assumption that the other person knows what we want. A whole drama is created because we make this assumption and then put more assumptions on
top of it.

Additional quotes by Don Miguel Ruiz

it was considered a warrior’s greatest challenge to rise beyond his own beliefs. Now it is seen as a tactless assault against one’s identity. In my day, we would chase anger to its borders, cutting through thorn and weed until we found our way to the open fields of awareness.

Faith is so important because it is the force that gives life to every word, to every concept that we store in our mind. We can say that life manifests through faith, and that faith is a messenger of life. Life goes through our faith, and then our faith gives life to everything we agree to believe in.
