“You are a person worthy of love. You don’t have to do anything to prove that.”

Because the development of inner calm & energy happens completely within & isn’t dependent on another person or a particular situation, we begin to feel a resourcefulness and independence that is quite beautiful—and a huge relief.

To offer our hearts in faith means recognizing that our hearts are worth something, that we ourselves, in our deepest and truest nature, are of value.

Life is like an ever-shifting kaleidoscope – a slight change, and all patterns alter.

We have the power to improve our work lives immeasurably through awareness, compassion, patience & ingenuity.

When we learn to respond to disappointments with acceptance, we give ourselves the space to realize that all our experiences—good and bad alike—are opportunities to learn and grow.

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

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

It is awareness of both our shared pain and our longing for happiness that links us to other people and helps us to turn toward them with compassion.

Let the breath lead the way.

Even as we recognize our resentment, bitterness, or jealousy, we can also honor our own wish to be happy, to feel free.

Its never too late to take a moment to look.

We often get caught up in our own reactions and forget the vulnerability of the person in front of us.

When you recognize and reflect on even one good thing about yourself, you are building a bridge to a place of kindness and caring.

The movement of the heart as we practice generosity in the outer world mirrors the movement of the heart when we let go of conditioned views about ourselves on our inner journey. Letting go creates a joyful sense of space in our minds

Only when we start to distinguish reality from fantasy that we can humbly, with eyes wide open, forge loving and sustainable connections with others.

Sometimes kindness is stepping aside, letting go of our need to be right & just being happy for someone.

The distance between you and greatness, is how much you believe in yourself.

Dear me, I love you the most when you are being yourself.

I told the stars about you.

Palm trees-they bend but never break I hope your love grows like this.

Do they love you? Or do they only seem to love what you could do for them?

I’m not meant to be your midnight secret, I deserve to be loved in the daylight.

Teaching you how to love me, is not a job i want to sign up for.

Love is not selective, just as the light of the sun is not selective. It does not make one person special. It is not exclusive.
