We all have something that centers us in our lives. That linchpin is something that when we don't do enough of it, we start to feel off center.

I think I have an awareness inside of me that we are all the same, that basically we are all part of that one heart.

We are living in an inspiring and unimaginably large universe. Contemplating the immensity of our cosmos can make you feel very small and insignificant. But think about it. You have 37.2 trillion cells in your body. There is vastness outside you and vastness inside you. You are connected to this mystery, you are a microcosm of the universe, and every aspect of your life benefits from the universe's provision.

In our heart, we are all the same and I think that belief makes me open up, reach out to others, and bring my own warmth and loving to them. I am very grateful that I have found a way to express what means so much to me, which is that caring for one another.

You can feel small, insignificant and insubstantial, but knowing the universe is in your tiny body should be enough to make you happy.

Let's say you're auditioning for a part or you're going for a job you really want. You have to go in with a sense of self or you're not going to get the job. You need your ego to get what it is that you want to make things happen in your life.

No matter who you are, you have a giant self.
