Like the lotus flower that is born out of mud, we must honor the darkest parts of ourselves and the most painful of our life’s experiences, because they are what allow us to birth our most beautiful self.

Vision lifts you up. It makes you smile a secret smile because you know that you have something very special to share. What is your vision?

There's only person in the world you can't see - yourself. But, God created - or whoever created us, we don't even have to argue that point - created us so perfect because we can actually see ourselves in other people.

The world mirrors yourself back to you. If you love, nourish, and appreciate yourself internally it will show up in your external life. If you want more love, give more love to yourself. If you want acceptance, accept yourself.

Love is the answer, the spiritual solution that holds the power to end the war that rages within each of us.

All real change requires risk. You must take risks every day of your life. You must get up each morning and ask...: What can I do that is different?

We must be willing to take an honest look at ourselves and step out beyond our judgmental mind. It is here that we will have a life-altering shift in perception, an opening of our heart.
