The embodiment of kindness is often made difficult by our long ingrained patterns of fear & jealousy.

Loving ourselves opens us to truly knowing ourselves as part of the matrix of existence, inextricably connected to the boundlessness of life... when we see that we are far bigger than the person that is delineated by family or cultural expectations, we realize we are capable of so much more than we usually dare to imagine.

Compassion grows in us when we know how the energy of love is available all around us.

Once someone appears to us primarily as an object, kindness has no place to root.

We don’t need any sort of religious orientation to lead a life that is ethical, compassionate & kind.

Meditation is the ultimate mobile device; you can use it anywhere, anytime, unobtrusively.

It is never too late to turn on the light. Your ability to break an unhealthy habit or turn off an old tape doesn't depend on how long it has been running; a shift in perspective doesn't depend on how long you've held on to the old view. When you flip the switch in that attic, it doesn't matter whether its been dark for ten minutes, ten years or ten decades. The light still illuminates the room and banishes the murkiness, letting you see the things you couldn't see before. Its never too late to take a moment to look.
