One of the tragedies of our life is that we keep forgetting who we are

Pay attention to the people God puts in your path if you want to discern what God is up to in your life.

What makes us human is not our mind but our heart, not our ability to think but our ability to love.

For Jesus, there are no countries to be conquered, no ideologies to be imposed, no people to be dominated. There are only children, women and men to be loved.

You don't think your way into a new kind of living. You live your way into a new kind of thinking.

Dare to love and to be a real friend. The love you give and receive is a reality that will lead you closer and closer to God as well as those whom God has given you to love.

My whole life I have been complaining that my work was constantly interrupted, until I discovered that my interruptions were my work.

In a world so torn apart by rivalry, anger, and hatred, we have the privileged vocation to be living signs of a love that can bridge all divisions and heal all wounds.

The main question is not, how can we hide our wounds...but how can we put our woundedness in service to others.

O Lord, make this Lenten season different from the other ones. Let me find you again. Amen.

Those who keep speaking about the sun while walking under a cloudy sky are messengers of hope, the true saints of our day.

Sometimes our heroes let us down.

How can two people love each other, create children together, cohabitiate, build a life together, and then end up hating each other in the end.

As if I were the funniest, weirdest girl in the world - that's how he used to look at me.

And I have exposed myself to art so that my work has something beyond just the usual potter.

Men go after me, and I choose among them.

I had the luck of having an obedient body.

Nature will tell you a direct lie if she can.

This is the ongoing purpose of full attention: to find a thousand ways to be pierced into wholeness.

People look for their leadership to lead.

In a world that holds books and babies and canyon trails, why should one condemn oneself to live day-in, day-out with people one does not like, and sell oneself to chaperone and correct them?
