Wherever you are is the perfect place to awaken. This moment is the exact place to practice compassion and loving awareness. You have all the ingredients to breathe and find freedom just where you are.

The waves do keep coming, so learn to surf.

We each have been betrayed. Let yourself picture and remember the many ways this is true. Feel the sorrow you have carried from this past. Now sense that you can release this burden of pain by gradually extending forgiveness as your heart is ready.

Everybody needs to take some time, in some way, to quiet themselves and really listen to their heart.

May you know the beauty of your own true nature.

All of spiritual practice is a matter of relationship: to ourselves, to others, to life's situations.

Of course, you play the game of life because you got to be incarnated.
