Discovering vocation does not mean scrambling toward some prize just beyond my reach but accepting the treasure of true self I already posses.

I will always have fears, but I need not be my fears, for I have other places within myself from which to speak and act.

I'm 67 years old now. I've had a lot of good teachers over the years; and they have been very, very different from one another. They all had passion for what they were doing, but their styles were unique to them as individuals.

Don't let anyone or anything rob you of the beauty and meaning at the heart of life. It's your birthright gift.

Here, I think, is another clue to finding true self and vocation: we must withdraw the negative projections we make on people and situations - projections that serve mainly to mask our fears about ourselves- and acknowledge and embrace our own liabilities and limits.

I think the pursuit of happiness is the pursuit of reality because illusion never leaves us ultimately happy.

The human soul doesn't want to be fixed, it simply wants to be seen and heard. The soul is like a wild animal - tough, resilient and shy. When we go crashing through the woods shouting for it to come out so we can help it, the soul will stay in hiding. But if we are willing to sit quietly and wait for a while, the soul may show itself.
