It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living, I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

The world we live in is a co-creation, a manifestation of individual consciousness woven into a collective dream. How we are with each other as individuals, as groups, as nations and tribes, is what shapes that dream.

Sometimes I think there are only two instructions we need to follow to develop and deepen our spiritual life: slow down and let go.

What if becoming who and what we truly are happens not through striving and trying but by recognizing and receiving the people and places and practices that offer us the warmth of encouragement we need to unfold?

When we surrender when we do not fight with life when it calls upon us we are lifted and the strength to do what needs to be done finds us.

Loudly declaring our soul's desire can get the blood running and our passions blazing.

It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know whether you can get up after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done to feed the children.
