The really potent part of love is that it allows you to carry around beliefs about yourself that make you feel special, desirable, precious, innately good. Your lover couldn't have seen [these qualities] in you, even temporarily, if they weren't part of your essential being.

Hopeful thinking can get you out of your fear zone and into your appreciation zone.

Forcing yourself to think happy lies doesn't heal your dreams. Getting to the truth does.

Where your attention goes, your life goes.

The way we do anything is the way we do everything.

Take off your watch: the divine is speaking to you.

Try seeing your world and yourself this way, eyes open to whatever is before you, mind free of dichotomies. Are you good or bad, fragile or tough, wise or foolish? Yes. And so am I.
