In a world where the great technologies enable us to record, replay, cut and paste, zoom in, and delete, listening is the crucial commitment to keep the heart touchable.

…I keep looking for one more teacher, only to find that fish learn from the water and birds learn from the sky.” (p.275)

By our very nature, we are a human paradox. We are a human being. The being is infinite and the human is very finite. We walk around like lightening in a bottle.

Anything or anyone that asks you to be other than yourself is not holy, but is trying only to fill its own need.

The greatest thing we can do to be closer to our own lives and to the freshness of living is to open up again.

Each of us carries some wisdom waiting to be discovered at the center of our experience. Everything we meet, if faced and held, reveals a part of that wisdom.

Light is in both the broken bottle and the diamond.
