Everyone and everything is in some degree or other our teacher.

Since death will take us anyway, why live our life in fear? Why not die in our old ways and be free to live?

Acceptance does not mean inaction. We may need to respond, strongly at times...From a peaceful center we can respond instead of react. Unconscious reactions create problems. Considered responses bring peace. With a peaceful heart whatever happens can be met with wisdom...Peace is not weak; it is unshakable.

It is our commitment to wholeness that matters, the willingness to unfold in every deep aspect of our being.

In a society that almost demands life at double time, speed and addictions numb us to our own experience. In such a society, it is almost impossible to settle into our bodies or stay connected with our hearts, let alone connect with one another or the earth where we live.

Love is based on our capacity to trust in a reality beyond fear, to trust a timeless truth bigger than all our difficulties.

True love is not for the faint-hearted.
