What matters in this life is more than winning for ourselves. What really matters is helping others win too. Even if it means slowing down and changing our course now and then.

The purpose of life is to listen - to yourself, to your neighbor, to your world and to God and, when the time comes, to respond in as helpful a way as you can find ... from within and without.

If your trusted and people will allow you to share their inner gardern...what better gift?

Hopefully your choices can come from a deep sense of who you are.

Silence is so powerful, so important. There is so much to be learned from it.

Solitude is different from loneliness, and it doesn't have to be a lonely kind of thing.

We've forgotten what it's like not to be able to reach the light switch. We've forgotten a lot of the monsters that seemed to livein our room at night. Nevertheless, those memories are still there, somewhere inside us, and can sometimes be brought to the surface by events, sights, sounds, or smells. Children, though, can never have grown-up feelings until they've been allowed to do the growing.
