There are the holding actions, the changing actions, and the vision of the future - what we want to see happen for the Earth. All are essential.

Gratitude is liberating. It is subversive. It helps us to realize that we are sufficient, and that realization frees us.

The heart that breaks open can contain the whole universe.

To be alive in this beautiful, self-organizing universe -- to participate in the dance of life with senses to perceive it, lungs that breathe it, organs that draw nourishment from it -- is a wonder beyond words.

The web of life both cradles us and calls us to weave it further.

Grace happens when we act with others on behalf of our world.

It is my experience that the world itself has a role to play in our liberation. Its very pressures, pains, and risks can wake us up -release us from the bonds of ego and guide us home to our vast true nature.
