“Turn off your television.
Open your windows.
Find open spaces.
Run to the ocean.
“The sea will speak to you
if you become quiet enough.”
There is magic in these mountains.
There are spirits in these old tall pines.
These are the places they wrote about.
The places they sang for and explored.
These are the places that notions arise from
when the wind howls.
Brothers and Sisters,
you are wild and infinite.
You are the wolves and the fish.
You are these trees and these rivers.
So when you sit, sit like a mountain.
None of these places will last.
These buildings will fail.
These trees will fall.
And these mountains?
Even the mountains will change.
So go easy Brothers and Sisters.
Be kind.
It is a long walk home.”

“You will go,
and you will forget.
We all do.
It’s part of our way.
To be thoughtless.
To simply pass through beauty,
and leave it behind. ”

“You were right.
I finally found you.
Though I would see your face
in visions from time to time,
this agreement is hard on me still.
I don’t know why we do it this way.
Why we choose to suffer over
the freedom of the astral plain,
over an expanded consciousness
and boundless awareness.
Why can’t I forget you?
I’m doomed to long for you with every birth.
To chase you until I catch you.
And when I do…
bliss.”

“I can’t even look at the sun now
without thinking of you.
Every star, every cloud,
every beautiful thing I see
means nothing to me if you are not here.
What is that?
That thing that makes the world
less important without you?
Come and find me
when we leave this place.
When we wake from this dream.
I am sure that I will still be in love with you. ”

“They lied to you.
You are not this body.
You are in fact a part of every single thing in this universe.
You are the cosmos.
You gave brith to the stars.
Now if you only knew how infinite you are.
One day you will drop this body and live on,
and at that time this will all just be a dream you once had.”

“But don’t chase these mystical experiences
or feelings of light.
They are meant to be rungs on a ladder.
And like most things they will change.
They will disappear.
They aren’t meant to stay.
They are meant to be teachers.
They show us what is possible,
and give us hope that
we can find our way home.”

“Well here we are.
You wouldn't believe
what I've been through.
It was like trying to wear shoes
that didn't fit.
But I found you.
You should have seen me
going from face to face
looking into each set of eyes
waiting for you to stare back at me. ”

“The greatness of America
does not lie in its ability to kill.
But rather in the hearts
and minds
of its citizens.
It lies in the brilliant ideas
and ingenuity of the average man and woman.
It lies within the ideas
that feed families
and opens doors for strangers.
The greatness of America
will never stand on the backs
of those who are broken
and hunched over.
The greatness of America
is found in the warm hug
of those who will never
be willing to let others starve
and die alone.
Do not worry about your history.
Let go of your cultural identity.
It’s spotty at best.
Concern yourself with today.
The willingness to share
is the greatness of America.
It will never lie in the
green hands that strangle
single mothers and desperate fathers.
Your wealth will not define this country.
America will be defined
by love.”

“In this dream I was a songwriter and an artist.
I fell madly in love with you.
Do you remember how hard it was?
What we went through to find one another?
I am always so reluctant to do this over and over again.
There is always that fear that I won't find you.
Though I always trust the process,
still there are powerful illusions in this world.
But none could keep me from you.
At times I feel like I dug through stone with my bare hands to find you.
Other times I laugh at how perfect it all is, and at the worry
that I may never lay eyes on you again.
How foolish.
You can’t separate water from rain.”

“You know, once Dad passes you will be able to heal and move on.”
To think of what I said now makes my stomach hurt.
My Mother looked and me and said, “I would take care of him in that state
for the rest of my life if I could. That’s my guy.”
At that point I realized that, that was my Mom’s love.
At one point they were boyfriend and girlfriend.
That was who she fell in love with.
That was probably the first time I saw my parents as two kids that fell in love.”
