No bird can fly without opening its wings, and no one can love without exposing their hearts.
To listen is to lean in, softly, with a willingness to be changed by what we hear.
The key to knowing joy is being easily pleased.
We think that accomplishing things will complete us, when it is experiencing life that will.
To journey without being changed, is to be a nomad. To change without journeying is to be a chameleon. To journey and to be transformed by the journeying is to be a pilgrim.
Like roots finding water, we always wind up moving towards what sustains us.
We are born with only one obligation - to be completely who we are.
The broken door lets in the light. The broken heart lets in the world.
Just opening quietly for moments everyday can create a path by which life can reach us, the way rain carves a little stream in the earth by which the smallest flowers are watered.
…there are no wrong turns, only unexpected paths.
