I’m learning that to be at home everywhere, I have to be sure to include the place I actually live.

It is in the act of offering our hearts in faith that something in us transforms... proclaiming that we no longer stand on the sidelines but are leaping directly into the center of our lives, our truth, our full potential.

There are many different ways to practice meditation; it's good to experiment until you find one that seems to suit you.

When you're wide open, the world is a good place.

We need the compassion and the courage to change the conditions that support our suffering. Those conditions are things like ignorance, bitterness, negligence, clinging, and holding on.

To relinquish the futile effort to control change is one of the strengthening forces of true detachment & thus true love.

We can't control what thoughts and emotions arise within us, nor can we control the universal truth that everything changes. But we can learn to step back and rest in the awareness of what's happening. That awareness can be our refuge.
