Those who love you are not fooled by mistakes you have made or dark images you hold about yourself. They remember your beauty when you feel ugly; your wholeness when you are broken; your innocence when you feel guilty; and your purpose when you are confused.

Every musician I have ever heard has influenced me. I often find I emulate micro-aspects of an artist, and combine it to form something new and unique.

If you want peace, look for it where it is, not in conflict.

Spirit Math: The quality of your life equals the ratio of appreciation to complaint.

Joy is not the result of getting what you want; it is the way to get what you want. In the deepest sense, joy is what you want.

It is not selfish to be happy. It is your highest purpose. Your joy is the greatest contribution you can make to life on the planet. A heart at peace with its owner blesses everyone it touches.

You always have energy to do what you are passionate about.
