"I want to be part of the happiness team - let's create the happiness team - from love, not greed, love of life & our planet, true & free."

"What life means has individual answers for each of us."

"All I can say to people who hate their mothers for giving birth to them is "get the fuck out of your scaredy shells and kiss the world"."

"Hungry for beautiful words, the fox comes rooting around in the hedge, almost too close to the fire. He reads my mind with one glance and is gone. All my poetry is now trotting around the bushes inside him, maybe some day to be partly eaten or left to rot. He understands being alive for as long as he can be, and does not worry about why, or what might happen afterwards."

"Words to intrigue, inspire, examine, question, praise; Words to help us appreciate our world, our selves, our games; Words to dance our true soul fires gracefully free."

"Words fly like stones into clouds and accelerate..."

"If you are unaware of what's within, you will be shown in the mirror of your near future life experience. Wiser to keep a step ahead."

"I believe in always being open to learning more through exploration of everything available and following one's sense of curiosity, creativity, and playfulness."

"If the spirit of wonder & curiosity stays alive in us, then surely we will always have new questions, and always expand our creativity in response?"

"Life is an adventure I am enjoying creating."

"What destiny is there, but to sense, observe, merge, re-emerge,Empty, yet filled, spreading everywhere, inside, outside, in, Pulsing, fluctuating, breathing as part of one being, Whispering, feeling, reflecting, flowing between hot and cold, Mineral and plant, dark and light, love and fear, new and old."

"ego promenades, flounces, pushes in unwanted places, trips, stands on others, whereas a sense of destiny grounds - you just do what you do"

"Enlightenment is not about cocooning one’s self, but about integrating more fully with both your self and life."

"We have the greatest power through love that can be known. It overcomes everything with its fierce and steady truth, if you can continue to stand in it. You can call love to you, directly from the original stream of consciousness, anytime you feel weak or fearful, and you will be given strength and courage. You can call love to you, directly from the original stream of consciousness, anytime you feel sad or alone, and you will feel embraced and comforted. Call love to you if you feel vulnerable. Feel its purity come to you from the universe and flow round you like a miraculous mother cradling its innocent child. Breathe love in. Say to yourself as you breathe deeply “I love. I am loved.” Say it over and over as you breathe it into yourself and out to the universe, until you really feel and believe that you ARE LOVE. Feel love pour into your lungs as you breathe. Feel it circulate round your body to fill every organ, every limb, and every cell. Vibrate with its radiance, and share it."

"Let's follow our curiosity & our joy."

"To lose a problem, do not oppose, let go of any need to control, perhaps it's all an illusion we project, more like a game we play than real?"

"Even heaven and hell arise just as we think they should be for we are each beings of consciousness creating our own reality."

"I desire the world - therefore I have it."

"It's love that makes the world go round - otherwise it would be flat."

"My power is everywhere propping up illusions, but I'm taking it back by letting go of them & just riding the stallion into wonderland. Let's see what you've got to say about the darkness in the mountains, I wonder if you know you can just turn it all to light. As we ride through the valley can you see the same water flowing that I do, or do dust clouds conceal it and block up your nose & throat? You're so thirsty for the end of the journey but I don't want you to miss the magic on the road."
