Whenever you feel uncomfortable and don’t know what to do, find some place to look at the openness of the sky and experience the freshness, free of hope and fear, just completely open.  This open space permeates everything and is available to us every moment of our lives.

Why should you act a certain way to please others?  Do things from your inner awareness and from your own feelings.  Change when it pleases you, your life is flexible.  If you let others shape you then you will never know independence and peace.

There is an alternative way of living, start with detoxifying the mental-emotional spiritual garbage we all inherit.  Do this by returning to our own humanity, we can then realize our full human potential enabling us to transform our institutions and ourselves.

In life conflict between differing opinions arises everywhere.  Generally, dispute arises from not having the flexibility in considering the others opinion.  Whether you win or lose is not enjoyable, its better to solve the dispute before it goes too far, usually by meeting your opponent halfway.

Quote: Do not wait for change before you do something, do it now.
