If you carry someone else's fears and live by someone else's values, you may find that you have lived their lives.

Goose bumps happen when your soul is close to you, breathing lightly on the back of your neck, and wakes you up.

There are few master teachers in life. ... But there are many who can listen to life so well that they can hear the vastness in everything and in you. A teacher is someone who has learned to listen to life. Someone who has found a way to listen well. Any real teacher is only a finger pointing. In the end, we may find out more by not following our teachers but by following what our teachers follow for themselves. From a good teacher you may learn the secret of listening. You will never learn the secrets of life. You will have to listen for yourself.

Our wounds are our sources of growth.

Our listening creates a sanctuary for the homeless parts within another person.

The way towards freedom from a situation often lies in acceptance of the situation.
