What makes us human is not our mind but our heart, not our ability to think but our ability to love.

In solitude we become aware that we were together before we came together and that life is not a creation of our will but rather an obedient response to the reality of our being united.

I can choose to grateful when I am criticized, even when my heart still responds in bitterness. I can choose to speak about goodness and beauty, even when my inner eye still looks for someone to accuse or something to call ugly.

If you meet God in solitude, you discover the God you meet is the God who embraces all people.

When you recognize the festive and the still moments as moments of prayer, then you gradually realize that to pray is to live.

To forgive another from the heart is an act of liberation. We set that person free from the negative bonds that exist between us. As long as we do not forgive we pull them with us, or worse, as a heavy load. The great temptation is to cling in anger to our enemies & then define ourselves as being offended & wounded by them. Forgiveness, therefore, liberates not only the other but also ourselves. It is the way to the freedom of the children of God.

I want my work to create space where people can meet God, rather than give them something they can "apply" to their daily life.
