We all have within us a deep wisdom, but sometimes we don't know we have it. We live in a culture that doesn't acknowledge or validate human intuition and doesn't encourage us to rely on our intuitive wisdom. Much of the Western world emphasizes rationality and reason, but overlooks or ignores the enormous value of intuition and instinctive wisdom.

People who really want to be in a relationship are IN one.

That has been my personal relationship with God-a connection with the powerful, loving, wise energy in all of us, in all creation. It is the life force itself. We can all have contact with it each moment in our lives, but it takes commitment and practice. We must be willing to move through all our deepest fears, doubts, and misunderstandings.

Ambition is an idol, on whose wings great minds are carried only to extreme; to be sublimely great or to be nothing.

As human beings we have vulnerabilities. We also have power, but we can't just be powerful all the time.

By viewing our relationships with friends, family, and co-workers as mirrors, as teachers - we see that they are reflecting back to us exactly what we most need to learn.

We can learn to move into the unknown with the confidence that we have a guiding force within us that is showing us the way.
