Awakening is about liberating yourself from the prison that is the world of the mind and daring to be here as all that you are.

"What do I want?" is your question. And what you want is always changing with the flow. So go with the flow.

Don't diminish yourself in any way. Dare to be all that you are.

You get lost because you think there is somewhere to go. If you give up believing in a goal or a destination, then you cannot get lost. In the present moment, there is no destination.

To live a present and awakened life, simply be responsive to the moment. It is very simple. If you are hungry, eat. If you are thirsty, drink. If you are lonely, call a friend for tea. If you are overwhelmed with too much company, then get away by yourself.

Once you have found yourself and accepted your aloneness, then the greatest blessing is to share the love that arises within you. Each new moment presents the richest opportunity to be loving. And you can share love in the simplest of ways. Be soft and gentle. Be caring and kind. Be loving in an ordinary way, without any sense of wanting anything back, Life offers you the most precious gift. The gift of allowing you to be present and share love.

The price of freedom is to allow freedom. Very few people are willing to pay the price.
