• You cannot find your soul with your mind,
  you must use your heart.
  You must know what you are feeling.
  If you don't know what you are feeling, you will create unconsciously.
  If you are unconscious of an aspect of yourself;
  if it operates outside your field of awareness,
  that aspect has power over you.

• No matter where i go, i still end up me. What's missing never changes. The scenery may change, but i'm still the same incomplete person. The same missing elements torture me with a hunger that i can never satisfy. I think that lack itself is as close as i'll come to defining myself.

• The act of consciousness is central; otherwise we are overrun by the complexes.
  The hero in each of us is required to answer the call of individuation.
  We must turn away from the cacaphony of the outerworld to hear the inner voice.
  When we can dare to live its promptings, then we achieve personhood.
  We may become strangers to those who thought they knew us, but at least we are no longer strangers to ourselves.

• The seeker after stillness should be told that the stillness is always there. Indeed it is in every man. But he has to learn, first, to let it in and, second, how to do so. The first beginning of this is to remember. The second is to recognize the inward pull. For the rest, the stillness itself will guide and lead him to itself.

• While we tend to equate motherhood solely with maternity, in the Lord’s language, the word 'mother' has layers of meaning...Mothe rhood is more than bearing children, though it is certainly that. It is the essence of who we are as women. It defines our very identity, our divine stature and nature, and the unique traits our Father gave us.

• We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again- to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more.
