The U.S. incarcerates more of its people than any nation in the world, or any nation in history.

In every moment we make a decision -- whether conscious or unconscious. Will I choose to open my heart, send love, withhold judgment and thus free myself from fear? Or will I close my heart, project fear instead of extending love, judge others, and thus bind myself to fear? The choice is mine and mine alone.

Light is to darkness what love is to fear; in the presence of one the other disappears.

Once we reach a certain age, we tend to recalibrate our expectations. We expect less from the world once we've seen it up close.

For a society as abundant and as blessed as ours, to have as many disadvantaged children as we have does not bode well for our long-term economic future.

Where there is lack, God’s abundance is on the way. Hold on. Have faith. It’s coming.

Your playing small does not serve the world. Who are you not to be great?
