to find where she belonged.
She found the answer staring back.
It was her Self she found.

We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to LOVE... and then we return home.

-- Aborigine philosophy

There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in its hands. You seek problems because you need their gifts.

-- Richard Bach, Illusions

We must have more faith in the power of love to eternally renew itself than in the power of fear to tear us asunder. The spirit does not turn away from human frailty or conflict, but sees them merely as wounds to heal. 

-- Marianne Williamson, Illuminate
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly;
what is essential is invisible to the eye.

-- Antoine de Saint-Exupery, The Little Prince
The world we have created is a product of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.

Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them;
but do not let them master you.
Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight.
When we do the best we can,
we never know what miracle is wrought in our life,
or in the life of another.

Helen Keller
If God rushed us or pushed us, and did not let us grow and awaken at our own pace, we would never become beautiful butterflies..

"What lies behind us and what lies before us
are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." 
 Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Peace comes within the souls of men,
when they realize their oneness with the Universe,
when they realize it is really everywhere...
it is within each one of us." 

Black Elk, Lakota Medicine Man

''Peace does not mean to be in a place where
there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart.'' 

That is the real meaning of peace.''

'The most beautiful and profound emotion
we can experience is the sensation of the mystical.
It is the foundation of all true science.
He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can
no longer stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead.
To know that what is inconceivable to us
really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom,
as the most radiant beauty which our dull faculties
can comprehend only in their most primitive form--
this knowledge, this feeling,
is at the center of true religiousness.

~ Albert Einstein ~

Let us not talk of karma, but simply of responsibility toward the whole world.

Responsibility does not only lie with the leaders of our countries or with those who have been appointed or elected to do a particular job. It lies with each of us individually. Peace, for example, starts within each one of us.


-His Holiness the Dalai Lama, "Imagine All the People"
Meditate. 
Live purely. 
Be quiet. 
Do your work with mastery. Like the moon, come out from behind the clouds! Shine.
