Spiritual life doesn't make you a good person; you ARE a good person, you are a holy being when you are born. What spiritual life does is remind us that this is who we really are.

To let go does not mean to get rid of. To let go means to let be. When we let be with compassion, things come and go on their own.

Life is so hard, how can we be anything but kind?

There are many ways up the mountain and each of us must choose a practice that feels true to our heart.

True love is not for the faint-hearted.

We must look at ourselves over and over again in order to learn to love, to discover what has kept our hearts closed, and what it means to allow our hearts to open.

Much of spiritual life is self-acceptance, maybe all of it.
