"We see white people losing it whenever they're faced with the fragility of whiteness because the shadow of privilege is this: You don't learn to take care of yourself inside. You don't learn to value your internal life. You get so fixated on your external life that you forget your internal life is much, much bigger, much deeper, and much more rewarding." — Jul 15, 2026 05:37PM

"I could remain enraged at all of these people, historic and contemporary, who cause harm. Remaining enraged would not enhance my freedom or well-being, but rather create greater suffering for me, as well as toward those who encounter my bitterness and resentment.

"If we take care of the suffering inside us, we have more clarity, energy, and strength to help address the suffering violence, poverty, and inequity of our loved ones as well as the suffering in our community and the world. If we know how to take care of our suffering, we not only suffer much, much less, we also create more happiness around us and in the world." — Feb 22, 2026 03:35PM

“Of course there must be lots of Magic in the world," he said wisely one day, "but people don't know what it is like or how to make it. Perhaps the beginning is just to say nice things are going to happen until you make them happen. I am going to try and experiment.”
