What we love and what captures our curiosity draws us forward into some place of great destiny.

A kind life...is fundamentally a life of courage.

We become what we love. Whatever you are giving your time and attention to, day after day, is the kind of person you will eventually become.

Many of us incorrectly assume that a spiritual life begins when we change what we normally do in our daily life. We feel we must change our job, our living situation, our relationship, our address, our diet, or our clothes before we can truly begin a spiritual practice. And yet it is not the act but the awareness, the vitality, and the kindness we bring to our work that allows it to become sacred.

The more spacious and larger our fundamental nature, the more bearable the pains in living.

All life has emptiness at its core; it is the quiet hollow reed through which the wind of God blows and makes the music that is our life.

The last place we tend to look for healing is within ourselves.
