People who have had little self-reflection live life in a huge reality blind-spot.

Real spirituality is about getting the bullshit out of your life and getting real.

Pain is as expansive as life itself. Pain grows with us and in us as a cultivation of life's unfolding.

We create in people through our actions and example. In this way people around us become reflections of our own behavioral patterns and internal energies

If your options are closing-in around you and you feel panicked, scared and helpless, this is the time for action.

Your past is like a bag of bricks; set it down and walk away. Quit collecting every painful word, memory and mistake. Collect hope.
