We need less posturing and more genuine charisma. Charisma was originally a religious term, meaning "of the spirit" or "inspired." It's about letting God's light shine through us. It's about a sparkle in people that money can't buy. It's an invisible energy with visible effects. To let go, to just love, is not to fade into the wallpaper. Quite the contrary, it's when we truly become bright. We're letting our own light shine.

Cynicism is just an excuse for not helping.

Each time we consider a miracle impossible, or assume that we ourselves are not capable of working it, then we're choosing not to take flight.

Success means we go to sleep at night knowing that our talents and ablities were used in a way that served others.

First there was the word. A Course in Miracles says that prayer is the "medium of miracles." It's the realm of thought where we are aligned with the thought of God and therefore in a co- creative mode. It's where we surrender our minds to His mind and become empowered.

We love purely when we release other people to be who they are.

People involved in the inner journey discover the value of the feminine, the spiritually receptive and inclusive aspect of human consciousness.
