All too often you speak simply to fill the space with sound, because you feel too uncomfortable with the silence. But this silence is golden. Only in silence you can hear God speak to you. Only in silence can a real prayer, a heart prayer be born. Next time you start chattering, stop and feel into the silence, feel its shape, its texture, and then slowly and silently say only what really has to be said.

Do not be hard on yourself about things you cannot change. The past is past and it's time to move on.

Are you willing to do that now? Or are you going to wait until all life energy drains out of you and your loved ones who are trying to support you at this very moment? You were not born to follow rules and regulations. Living starts with dreaming. So dream, dream friend, and let dreams show you the path to your bliss.

When you give to the less fortunate, you empower them to add value to the world - a world that you share with them. When their lives get better, yours will also naturally be uplifted.

Nothing truly meaningful is achieved on the first attempt, and if that's where you stop, then failure is all you will have.

An attitude of receptivity and warmth and readiness to receive God's grace. An attitude of giving and generosity and not-holding-back to let God's grace flow through you and on into the world. You know you love God when you feel love flowing through you.

When you want the world to change, lead by example, and others are sure to follow.
