“No two people have the same reality.”

Within each experience of pain or negativity is the opportunity to challenge the perception that lies behind it and to choose to learn with wisdom.

When you welcome your emotions as teachers, every emotion brings good news, even the ones that are painful.

We need truth to grow in the same way that we need vitamins, affection and love.

An authentically powered person lives in love. Love is the energy of the soul. Love is what heals the personality. There is nothing that cannot be healed by love. There is nothing but love.

Your life is an opportunity to give the gifts that your soul wants to give.

You lose power to the people and circumstances you judge. They capture your attention in the same way that a movie does.

Being harmless means being so strong, so empowered, that the idea of showing power through harm is not even a part of your consciousness.

Scarcity of self value cannot be remedied by money, recognition, affection, attention or influence.

The first step toward spiritual growth is to become aware of your emotions.

If you choose to forgive someone who has wronged you rather than to hate that person, you shift the frequency of your Light.

Allow yourself to experience what it is to learn step by step the freedom that comes from being unattached to the outcome, but operating from an empowered heart.

The opposite of love is not hate. It is fear.

Each moment is a moment of choice ~ a time to leave the old, the limited, the restrained, and the contracted for the new, the unbound, and the liberating potential that expands before you.

If we perceived life with reverence, we would stand in awe at the experience of physical life and walk the earth in a very deep sense of gratitude.

Authentic needs are the needs that are always met by the Universe.

Awareness is a blissful state, not a painful one.

The happiest people I have known have been those who gave themselves no concern about their own souls, but did their uttermost to mitigate the miseries of others.

If all babies are so cute, how the hell do we have so many ugly people in the world?

People think that at the end of the day a man is the only answer. Actually, a fulfilling job is better for me.

It’s always been hard for me to walk away from people I love when I’ve grown to become reliant on even some of their most harmful traits.

Be thou good thyself, and let people speak evil of thee; it is better than to be wicked, and that they should consider thee as good.

Anger that has no limit causes terror, and unseasonable kindness does away with respect. Be not so severe as to cause disgust, nor so lenient as to make people presume.

Love binds people too, in matrimony’s sacred bonds where chaste lovers are met, and friends cement their trust and friendship. How happy is mankind, if the love that orders the stars above rules, too, in your hearts.

You know what I always say about basketball whenever anybody tried to tell me the Knicks are gonna be good: They’re old. Old people don’t get healthy. They die.
