Soothing Secrets

Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you ...

It's also helpful to realize that this very body that we have,
that's sitting right here right now...
with its aches and it pleasures...
is exactly what we need to be fully human, fully awake, fully alive ...

A bone to the dog is not charity ...
Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog ...

Be open to your dreams, people ...
Embrace that distant shore ...
Because our mortal journey is over all too soon ...

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer ...

Every job you do deserves the best effort ...

Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you ...
