The art of life is to stay wide open and be vulnerable, yet at the same time to sit with the mystery and the awe and with the unbearable pain - to just be with it all.

By acting compassionately, by helping to restore justice and to encourage peace, we are acknowledging that we are all part of one another.

Counseling has to do with intuition, with work on oneself, with the quietness of one's mind and the openness of one's heart.

The thinking mind is what is busy. You have to stay in your heart. You have to be in your heart. Be in your heart. The rest is up here in your head where you are doing, doing, doing.

Early in the journey you wonder how long the journey will take and whether you will make it in this lifetime. Later you will see that where you are going is HERE and you will arrive NOW...so you stop asking.

By going into third world countries and serving, by actually feeding and helping people, I've been led to focus a little more on how people here try to be happy by ignoring other people who are unhappy.

I help people as a way to work on myself, and I work on myself to help people... To me, that's what the emerging game is all about.
