If you just look...
If you just look at all that already exists in your life, all that you already have: unlimited air to breathe, ample lighting to see, music to hear...
The entire kingdom...
Perhaps one day the world, our world, won't be upside down, and then any newborn human being will be welcome...
Be brave...
Anything you do from the soulful self will help lighten the burdens of the world. Anything. You have no idea what the smallest word, the tiniest generosity can cause to be set in motion...
Beautiful people...
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss...
What we are here for...
We shall not be here forever. One day the kind old nurse will come and rock us all to sleep...
Be gentle...
Care less for your harvest than for how it is shared and your life will have meaning...
Love machines...
We believe we are hurt when we don't receive love. But that is not what hurts us...
Guests at a table...
We are all of us from birth to death guests at a table which we did not spread...
Magical things...
We think, sometimes, there's not a dragon left. Not one brave knight, not a single princess gliding through secret forests...
Listen closely...
If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem...
