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

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.

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.

It gives me such hope that each one of us can contribute to make this world a better place.

One of the things I tell young people - and older people too - is that when things don't happen that you want, don't drown in discouragement. We say, "Oh, this didn't happen, so nothing good will happen." Don't barricade yourself.

Because of social media, we have access to amazing spiritual teachers. You can watch the Dalai Lama, Desmond Tutu, Eckhart Tolle or any number of other masters. Their teachings are available and we must celebrate that.

We forget that our bodies are the most valuable, precious thing we have and take that miracle of life for granted.
