There is an alternative to seeing ourselves as either right or wrong.  The alternative is a more tender, shaky place where we can live. This place will help us soften our habitual patterns and we will begin to see the faces and hear the words of people who are talking to us.

In order to bring about beauty in life we must sink down deep roots and connect to the earth.  This will give you a deep connection to the energy that arises in all parts of the body.  To do this, learn methods that focus on and cultivate body, mind and spirit.

When we lose trust in ourselves, we begin to depend on authority.  When people no longer fear the power of authority a greater empowerment appears, never needing to enforce itself.  You will then work naturally to fulfill yourself and meet your community needs.

Only a collective moral force can unite the world, such times of unification will leave great achievements.  Human woes usually come because of unexpected events against which we are not forewarned.  We should prepare ourselves for unforeseen events, or unexpected change.

Quote: Cultivating a skill without using it is like learning a foreign language without leaving home.
