"There are three musts that hold us back: I must do well. You must treat me well. And the world must be easy."

“The Mother Moon invites us to harvest our experiences, draw inspiration and shine our own light by releasing all that holds us back. Also it teaches us that no matter how dark is the darkness, the light will always return.”

“What gives value to travel is fear. It is the fact that, at a certain moment, when we are so far from our own country we are seized by a vague fear, and an instinctive desire to go back to the protection of old habits. This is the most obvious benefit of travel. At that moment we are feverish but also porous, so that the slightest touch makes us quiver to the depths of our being.” Albert Camus

“Effortless doesn’t mean no effort; effortless means just enough effort to be vivid, to be present, to be here, to be now. To be bright. My teacher used to call this “effortless effort.” We each need to find out for ourselves what this means. Too much effort and we get too tight; too little effort and we get dreamy. Somewhere in the middle is a state of vividness and clarity and inner brightness.”

"If there's something special you want to do, 
now is the time... if you want to make a difference 
in the world, now is the time. Don't be fooled into
 thinking you should wait until you are older or wiser 
or more 'secure' - because it doesn't work that way.
 The wisdom will come. The security will come. 
But first you must begin your adventure." Ron Atchison

SINGULARITY
by Marie Howe

"Do you sometimes want to wake up to the singularity
we once were?
so compact nobody
needed a bed, or food or money —
nobody hiding in the school bathroom
or home alone
pulling open the drawer
where the pills are kept.
For every atom belonging to me as good
Belongs to you. Remember?
There was no Nature. No
them. No tests
to determine if the elephant
grieves her calf or if
the coral reef feels pain. Trashed
oceans don’t speak English or Farsi or French;
could we wake up to what we were before,
— when we were ocean and before that
to when sky was earth, and animal was energy, and rock was liquid and stars were space and space was not
at all — nothing
before we came to believe humans were so important
before this awful loneliness.
Can molecules recall it?
what once was? before anything happened?
No I, no We, no one. No was
No verb no noun
only a tiny tiny dot brimming with
is is is is is
All everything home."

“Dearest pain body, I witnessed you, sidestepped you, rose above you, numbed you, intellectualized you, outran you. I was so good at it, that I thought you were gone. Silly me, confusing self-avoidance with emotional health. In fact, you were right here, a karmic seed longing to mature into a garden of expansion, waiting in the wings to be nourished into view. Repressed emotions are unactualized spiritual lessons. Excavate, excavate, excavate…” Jeff Brown

"Basic human contact - the meeting of eyes, the exchanging of words - is to the psyche what oxygen is to the brain. If you're feeling abandoned by the world, interact with anyone you can."
Martha Beck
