Yes, it's vulnerable and scary to keep your love on toward someone who has become a perceived threat-you cannot guarantee what he or she is going to do. But you can guarantee your own choice. And you can always choose connection.

An old meaning of the word 'restoration' is to find someone with a royal bloodline who has been removed from the throne and then restore the person to that throne - to a position of honor.

Typically, people allow differences and mistakes to lower their respect and value for other people. But you know the pillar of honor is strong in a relationship when you can look at the other person and say, “You are really different from me. It makes me sad when I see you making that choice. But I love you. I value you, I believe in you, and I am here for you in this relationship.

One of the reasons people perish without a vision is that they cannot endure the pain and cost required to achieve any worthwhile purpose.

Every problem must find it's owner before we can ever offer a solution

If you want to make a difference, then get good at doing something and not just talking about something

Peace is not the absence of conflict it is authority over chaos.
