David DeidaDavid Deida Praise is literal food for feminine qualities. If you want your woman to grow in her radiance health, happiness, love, beauty, power and depth, praise these qualities. Praise them daily. A number of times.
David DeidaDavid Deida The masculine grows by challenge, but the feminine grows by praise. A man must be unabashed and expressed in his appreciation for his woman. Praise her freely.
David DeidaDavid Deida Stop waiting. Feel everything. Love achingly. Give impeccably. Let go.

David DeidaDavid Deida Your heart knows the truth of openness and suffers the tense lie of your closure.
David DeidaDavid Deida You should do whatever feels right in your deepest heart. Feel deep as consciousness, open as water, now, and feel how to live with a wide-open heart. Feel how to live as love without bondage.
David DeidaDavid Deida Spiritual practice is the capacity to offer your love even when you feel hurt, closed down, tense, angry, misunderstood, or hated.
