Deep inside, our integrity sings to us whether we are listening or not. It is a note that only we can hear. Eventually, when life makes us ready to listen, it will help us to find our way home.

From a good teacher you may learn the secret of listening. You will never learn the secret of life. You will have to listen for yourself

Our purpose in life is to grow in wisdom and in love.

Being alive is being aware, being able to be touched and moved and changed, being able to respond rather than to react, being able to see and hear.

The spiritual is inclusive. It is the deepest sense of belonging and participation.We all participate in the spiritual at all times, whether we know it or not.

Suffering shapes the life force, sometimes into anger, sometimes into blame and self-pity. Eventually it may show us the wisdom of embracing and loving life.

Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are.
