What is not ex-pressed is de-pressed.

Whatever difficulty you face, there are time-tried ways you can listen your way through. Because listening is the doorway to everything that matters. It enlivens the heart the way breathing enlivens the lungs. We listen to awaken our heart. We do this to stay vital and alive.

Keeping a commitment to listening has led me to my own growth, beyond any imagined dreams I may have had throughout the years.

There is no getting around the fundamental fact that we need to interact with everything in order to manifest the wholeness we are born with.

Live loud enough in your heart and there is no need to speak.

I have found that life is alive and we are requested to have a friendship with it, to have a conversation with life and that conversation is restorative and healing and always nearby.

Even if one glimpses God, there are cuts and splinters and burns along the way.
