Until we get to the point where we've had enough of things that hurt and long more than anything for a peaceful love, we are bound to take painful roads. We are destined to play out our frivolous disasters until we declare ourselves finished and done with them. How much pain do we have to suffer before we are sure we want no more? As much, it seems, as we have to until we don't.

We want spiritual principles to be more than beautiful abstractions; we want them to actually transform our lives.

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.

A miracle is a shift in perception from fear to love.

The deepest feelings always show itself in silence.

Cynicism is just an excuse for not helping.

The holy child is waiting to be born in every instant, not just once a year.
