Every act of kindness and compassion toward others gets multiplied when they, in turn, pass it on. One by one the world becomes a better place. Service is indeed the gift that keeps on giving.

We drop like pebbles into the ponds of each other's souls, and the orbit of our ripples continues to expand, intersecting with countless others.

Everyday brings a choice: to practice stress or to practice peace.

Our strong spirit will survive every situation

I'm in this wonderful position where I can do what interests me. And whatever comes along that interests me, I do. The rest of the time I bother scientists about communicating.

Our moods and insights are transitory. This current is a flow of grace moving us to our right livelihood, companions, destiny.
