Real Inner Peace

Some sort of meditative activity really is essential to achieving any kind of real inner peace. Your mind needs a break once in a while. Sleep is wonderful, but it really isn't enough. You want to get to know your mind while you're in a conscious state. Miracles happen when you are awakened to the powerful, mystical energy of the mind. The mind is your 'Excalibur'. Free it, and the Kingdom (or Queendom, if you prefer) is yours. - Dorothy Mendoza Row

Grow in Awareness of Each Other

"As we grow in awareness of one another, whether two people beginning a romance or two disparate and far-removed strangers taking an interest in the other's culture, a wonderful thing begins to happen. We begin to care for the other as if the other is part of us. This is the magic of life that our ancient teachers have bid us to see; the invisible filaments of interconnectedness that bind us together in love and appreciation." Scott A. Hunt

Death

"Death is not my enemy. She is the midwife who will deliver me (sooner or later) out of this life into the Mystery that awaits. She is trustworthy. She has a wealth of experience. She will know when the time is right. Strolling arm in arm with Death sharpens my appreciation for this moment in the sun. An unexpected Grace. " - Alan Hinton

Not Bad News

"Feelings like disappointment, embarrassment, irritation, resentment, anger, jealousy, and fear, instead of being bad news, are actually very clear moments that teach us where it is that we’re holding back. They teach us to perk up and lean in when we feel we’d rather collapse and back away. They’re like messengers that show us, with terrifying clarity, exactly where we’re stuck. This very moment is the perfect teacher, and, lucky for us, it’s with us wherever we are."  ― Pema Chödrön
