What is not ex-pressed is de-pressed.

Part of the blessing and challenge of being human is that we must discover our own true nature.

In daily terms, the work of listening is to be constantly worn free of our preconceptions and preferences so that nothing stands in the way of our direct experience of life.

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

When we are forced to stop the noise around us and in us, we begin to hear everything that is not us, and this is the beginning of humility and the renewal of our soul's energy; as only by listening to all that is larger than us can we discover and feel our place in the Universe.

No bird can fly without opening its wings, and no one can love without exposing their hearts.

Have the #‎ life you want by being fully present to the life you have.
