“With writing, I can express myself, really, and share my ideas and just let my thoughts flow out.”

There are lots of different interpretations of the word ‘prodigy.’

Since then, I have spoken at hundreds of schools, classrooms and conferences around the world.

Like ‘naive,’ ‘impulsive’ and ‘way too connected online,’ are all things we can turn into strengths to help us.

History is made every day.

We should all be more aware of what’s going on in the world around us and less ignorant.

Everything from championing literacy and youth voice to raising awareness about world hunger.

I would say that kids are great in many ways.

The traits the word ‘childish’ addresses are seen so often in adults that we should abolish this age.

To show that you truly care, you listen.

Rather than us trying to change girls in order to fit into the common mold of what we think a CEO looks like.

The goal is not to turn kids into your kind of adult, but rather better adults than you have been.

Learning between grown-ups and kids should be reciprocal.

Due to the fact that we are not jaded or cynical.

The point of my work is to make it clear that all youth can make ‘big miracles’ happen.

No matter your position or place in life.

I taught my first class at a local elementary school the year my first book, ‘Flying Fingers,’ debuted.

All religions are the same. They all lead to God. God is everybody … The same blood flows through us all, the arms, the legs, the heart, all are the same. See no difference. See all the same.

It’s an idea you have of yourself, like the idea you have of your own personality which finds its best representation in the world in terms of specific flows of imaginary images. That’s what directing is.

The river that flows in you also flows in me.

All religions are true. God can be reached by different religions. Many rivers flow by many ways but they fall into the sea. They all are one.

Errors like straws upon the surface flow, Who would search for pearls to be grateful for often must dive below.

Lessen the quantity of unnecessary thoughts and allow more space for the energy of love to flow within you.

If we let go of our likes and dislikes, we will become fit vessels to receive the God’s ever flowing grace.

When winter withers – my bones begin to thaw, my lungs crackle as they expand, and the blood in my veins start to flow and I awaken from hibernation – hungry for happiness and eager to let go.
