We live with that sense of not being enough, and it causes a very painful state.

It's important that we see clearly with wisdom and awareness, but also take action.

I started meditating and as soon as I turned that lens of attention inwards, it was like, okay, game over. This is what I'd been looking for to resolve some of these inner conflicts and pains.

Nature teaches us simplicity and contentment, because in its presence we realize we need very little to be happy.

I do believe there's a place for anger in spiritual life. Just as a mother protects a child, as parents protect offspring under threat, we need a place for the conscious use of that fire. The positive side of anger as fierceness.

We need to forgive - but mindfully. We need compassion that powered by wisdom. That's the way to address our bullies.

We're not as different as we think we are.
