...a miracles is a reasonable thing to ask for.

I'm not bowled over by how different all the world's religions are - I'm bowled over by how similar they are.

Love is a hero’s journey, and the hero’s journey is a noble but difficult path.

It can take years of tears to melt the hardness that develops in this world, covering our tender, gentler inner selves. Tears for every devastating loss, tears for every humiliating failure, tears for every repeated mistake. Those who honor those tears, and even honor them, are not failures at love but rather its true initiates. First the pain and then the power. First the heart breaks and then it soars.

Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness.

May my heart be your shelter, and my arms be your home.

These are very serious times, and serious people need to be doing some serious thinking.
