By losing my external things, I found myself. I found something very powerful, very permanent, that I could have with me all the time.

I was a very focused and determined woman and I always got what I wanted. But once I had it, there was another future moment when I had to attain something else. These internal yearnings keep happiness in a future moment.

When we start to heal and perceive what I call love consciousness, we begin to perceive reality.

Often we don't change because we're afraid of what might happen. We cling to what we recognize, even if we are steeped in suffering.

Most people ultimately realize that they can acquire things, change their partner or other things, consume more and still it doesn't work. I'm not criticizing any of this.

When we learn to focus on love, grace, and gratitude, life is really quite lovely.
