It's not your job to like me - it's mine

Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. You don't have to like it... it's just easier if you do.

Spare yourself from seeking love, approval, or appreciation-from anyone. And watch what happens in reality, just for fun.

Our job is unconditional love. The job of everyone else in our life is to push our buttons.

Stress is an alarm clock that lets you know you're attached to something not true for you.

Peace doesn't require two people; it requires only one. It has to be you. The problem begins and ends there.

Fear has only two causes: the thought of losing what you have or the thought of not getting what you want.

Pay close attention to the particular thoughts you use to deprive yourself of happiness.

If you want real control, drop the illusion of control; let life have you. It does anyway. You’re just telling yourself the story of how it doesn’t.

It's not the problem that causes our suffering; it's our thinking about the problem.

Your True Nature Is Love. There's Nothing You Can Do About It.

Loving kindness practice helps us move out of the terrain of our default narratives if they tend to be based on fear or disconnection. We become authors of brand-new stories about love.

I'm like my mother, she thought, I search my joy for signs of sorrow ahead.

Perfection exists no where, because we all live in fragments - mental, psychological, physical, spiritual. Being total is an art which takes many lives to master!

I miss it if I’m not in it for any length of time

Every human being ask this question of himself

What else does anxiety about the future bring you but sorrow upon sorrow?

Silence never makes any blunders.

There's so much more to tell about Africa than the usual stories about war, famine and disease.

It's easier to come up with new stories than it is to finish the ones you already have. I think every author would feel that way.

God is inviting you today to appropriately grieve your pains and losses and to acknowledge the world is seriously broken.
