The sobering reality is that even though I have healed much of my trauma, most of the world doesn’t give a damn. Most of the world just doesn’t have the privilege to do the work. I realize that walking my own path of healing is a great privilege, and a sacred duty to somehow contribute to the evolution of consciousness for all…

…I do my healing work, but I have to constantly remind myself that the way human beings in western culture live is disturbingly abnormal and the responsibility is not mine alone. Without an experience of the numinous belonging to a Greater Reality, I would have folded years ago.

~ Jeannine D.

There is no such thing as second, third [or] fourth love. When people fall in love, every love is first love.

The honest man is lonely and the target of all attacks.

Life is neither easy nor complicated; life is just life. We simplify it and complicate it.

Knowledge never springs from faith; it springs from doubt.

~ Humayun Azad

Only to the extent that we expose ourselves over and over to annihilation can that which is indestructible be found in us.

To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest.
