"Many of us are willing to spend six or eight years studying to get a diploma. We believe it's necessary for us to be happy. But very few of us are willing to spend three or six months, or even a year, training ourselves to handle our sadness or our anger, to listen with compassion, and to use loving speech." — Apr 16, 2026 09:25AM

"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

"The question you need to ask is not "What's wrong with me?" but rather "What is right about this behavior?" Most people try to attack habits from the angle of behavior modification rather than behavior comprehension. Your habits serve a function. Knowing the function of your habit is key to changing it." — Mar 02, 2026 06:55PM

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring
