For every person who might reject you if you live your truth, there are ten others who will embrace you and welcome you home.

As we become purer channels for God's light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be.

But beauty itself is not given to us by anyone; it is a power we have within us from the gate, a radiance inside us.

We're all assigned a piece of the garden, a corner of the universe that is ours to transform.

Our hearts are being stretched to span the violence and the suffering in our lives and world, and at the same time we are also witness to so much magnificence and brilliance. We are a species that has produced nuclear weapons, and also one that has developed profound insight into the nature of life itself.

And no one will listen to us until we listen to ourselves.

To be truly seen and understood - in all our innocence and glory and yes, our brokenness, too - is to be delivered into the spiritual ethers where both seen and seer are healed.
