Every day brings new choices.

If you did nothing but pursue the truth about yourself for the rest of your life, you would never run out of fresh discoveries.

Heading towards that inner home will take you places-both inside yourself and in the external world-which your heart will recognize as its native environment, even though you have never been there before.

Your relationship is not supposed to be perfect all the time, your business is not supposed to do well all the time, your soufflés are not supposed to raise perfectly all the time.

Especially in difficult and frightening circumstances.
