“Let's say that we all inherently have love inside us. We don't need to be given anything to feel it; it just resides in us at our most basic level. Furthermore, this inherent love can never be taken from us.”

“If, in our human lives, we are moving up and down constantly through the levels of rebirth, then we must see the potential in each moment: the potential to improve, and the pitfalls we risk if we don't commit to living better. We can see that none of it is permanent, and so we simply try our best. We can even learn to see each moment, each breath, as a practice in taking in and letting go, or being born and dying, only to be reborn again. Rebirth teaches us that we can always be better, in life or after it.”

“An authentic life is a different sort of life. Unrehearsed behaviors lead to spontaneous interactions. A day spent with no expectations leads to unexpected wonders. A simple moment becomes an infinite moment, carrying with it the implications of total power.”

“Hate is loud, but I think you'll learn it's because it's only a few people shouting, desperate to be heard. You might not ever be able to change their minds, but so long as your remember you're not alone, you will overcome.”
