“The more you embrace joy, the less room there is for fear.”
― Rikki de la Vega, Hannah's Healing

“Joy is like air. We take it for granted, until it's not there. Then we know, desperately, how much it is needed”
― Rikki de la Vega, Bridget's Calling

“I see the Divine in the mountains, the rivers, the clouds and the stars.
I see the Divine in the highways, and skyscrapers, in farmland and playgrounds.
But where is the Divine in the barren desert, in burned-down forests, and disaster-stricken towns?
The Divine is in the oasis, and the people there who give water and rest to desert travelers.
The Divine is in the firefighters’ tools, and the flowers that bloom from the ash.
The Divine is in relief trucks, bringing food and water and comfort.
The Divine rests in all things, but is no more awake than when we summon strength to do what is right.”
― Rikki de la Vega, Priscilla's Transformation

“Everyone has power. The key is knowing where it lies, and how best to use it.”
― Rikki de la Vega, Bridget's Calling
