We need to be willing to be ourselves, to be real, and to let others get close enough to see inside of us -- and then we'll have relationships that are intimate, that are grand, that are real!

Recognizing the connection between all of us, we understand that giving love and sharing energy is the greatest gift, not only for others, but for ourselves as well. It is impossible to give without receiving...

Very few of us ever fully express our love for another. Afraid of being hurt, we find ourselves unwilling to be as vulnerable and open as that admission requires.

Many of us go through life "looking for something". Whether it is seeking "the love of our life" or the perfect job, perfect house, perfect something or other. Whatever it is, it is the "perfect "something that we feel we need and don't have.

You can change the world by loving people, doing good, succeeding, being honest and frank, thinking big, fighting for underdogs, building, helping people, and giving the world your best.

I don't believe that we are here to be miserable. I think some miserable people made that up so that everyone would be miserable like them.

Only when we appreciate the unique gifts that each of us has to offer and the shining web of connection that holds us all can we open ourselves to the full potential of what we can achieve together.

We are continuously comparing life to how we believe life should be. What we call our experience of life is just our reaction to the on-going comparison. 

We need to examine our emotions and assess how many minutes in a day we feel angry, depressed, anxious, unsatisfied, obsessed, or any other unhealthy feelings.

We each contribute to the puzzle that is life on earth, each in our unique way. This is not a "one size fits all" approach.

Stress is a major health problem... physically, emotionally, spiritually. Yet we can learn to let go of stress, or let it pass us by, rather than grabbing on to it and hanging on for dear life.

As a spiritual practice, when we ask for what we need and offer each other what we can, we enter a dance of unavoidable reciprocity.

In your work, your friendships, and relationships, are you giving just a part of yourself, or are you giving all of yourself? Are you sharing from the depths of your soul, or are you accommodating?

Fear is usually a head-trip about the future -- about your not wanting the past to repeat itself in the future or not wanting the future to turn out wrong.

The area where we spend the most of our time (if we work outside the home) is our bedroom. This room is the most important for our health and well-being.

Everything in life is a cycle or circle. We see that in nature very clearly. What comes down (rain) goes back up (evaporation); what decays (leaves, vegetation, etc.) cycles later into life (fruits , food, and flowers). 

"Thanks giving" is not a one day a year event. It is today and every day!

Goal setting is a great tool to make dreams come true. After all, if we don't know where we want to go, how will we get there?

When we are open to learning from others... whether children, animals, or other adults, whatever their rank or education, we become more more in tune with the Universe and ready to...

Trust is a choice. While there is no ironclad guarantee that you will never be betrayed, you have the power to create trusting relationships.

If the eyes are the window to the soul, be willing to "bare your soul" by letting your eyes make contact with others.

Take matters in your own hands, and only accept and nurture those beliefs that support your perfect health and happiness.

Humans have a tendency to "play it safe". This probably comes from a hereditary need to stay alive in the face of bears and tigers...
