We are all continually asked to learn how to ask for what we need, only to practice accepting what we're given.

Birds learn how to fly, never knowing where flight will take them.

Living is the original art. As a young man I wanted to be a poet and I learned along the way that I already was a poet.

I would rather be fooled than not believe.

Joy in what we do is not an added feature; it is a sign of deep health.

When we don't get what we want, there's a legitimate grieving, and then the spiritual journey truly begins, because not getting what we want breaks our self-reference; and once that is broken, we are aware that we are a part of a larger whole. It changes everything.

The resource of life is everywhere, even in the smallest of things and we're never very far from it.
