When we resist change, it’s called suffering. But when we can completely let go and not struggle against it, when we can embrace the groundlessness of our situation and relax into it’s dynamic quality, that’s called enlightenment

Like all explorers, we are drawn to discover what's out there without knowing yet if we have the courage to face it.

Welcome the present moment as if you had invited it. Why? Because it is all we ever have.

Are you experiencing restlessness? Stay! Are fear and loathing out of control? Stay! Aching knees and throbbing back? Stay! What's for lunch? Stay! I can't stand this another minute! Stay!

Unconditional good heart toward others is not even a possibility unless we attend to our own demons.

Honesty without kindness, humor, and goodheartedness can be just mean.

Use what seems like poison as medicine. Use your personal suffering as the path to compassion for all beings.
