I have learned there is no joy without hardship. There is no pleasure without pain. Would we know the comfort of peace without the distress of war?

There are no mistakes, no coincidences; all events are blessings given to us to learn from.

When I die I'm going to dance first in all the galaxies...I'm gonna play and dance and sing.

There are only two emotions: love and fear. All positive emotions come from love, all negative emotions from fear. From love flows happiness, contentment, peace, and joy. From fear comes anger, hate, anxiety and guilt. It's true that there are only two primary emotions, love and fear. But it's more accurate to say that there is only love or fear, for we cannot feel these two emotions together, at exactly the same time. They're opposites. If we're in fear, we are not in a place of love. When we're in a place of love, we cannot be in a place of fear.

Whether you know it or not, one of the most important relationships in your life is with your Soul. Will you be kind and loving to your Soul, or will you be harsh and difficult? Many of us unknowingly damage our Souls with our negative attitudes and actions or by simple neglect. By making the relationship with your Soul an important part of your life, however, by honoring it in your daily routine, you give your life greater meaning and substance. Use your experiences-all of them-as opportunities to nourish your Soul!

Those who learned to know death, rather than to fear and fight it, become our teachers about life.

We cannot find peace if we are afraid of the windstorms of life.
