What I refuse to face within myself will meet me in the exterior world through you, not as you are, but as I have so construed you.

The world is more magical, less predictable, more autonomous, less controllable, more varied, less simple, more infinite, less knowable, more wonderfully troubling than we could have imagined being able to tolerate when we were young.

We are all meaning-seeking, meaning creating creatures and when we experience the loss of meaning, we suffer.

We serve the world by finding out what feeds us, and, having been fed, then share our gifts with others.
