I don't believe the United States is going through a midlife crisis. The United States is going through an adolescent crisis.

Every problem emerges from the false belief we are separate from one another, and every answer emerges from the realization we are not.

I believe we are shown the path that is right as soon as we ask for it. Then we must live in the world and in some way express what we have learned.

The body IS a miracle, after all.

There is no they, only us. We are part of a large fellowship called the human race. We all hurt the same. We all love the same. We all bleed the same. We all need understanding and care. We can't separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of the same vast sea of love, one indivisible divine mind.

Choosing joy involves spiritual surrender, and sometimes we would rather hold on to the pain than surrender our egos.

God is the water, and you are the faucet.
