and allow communion with the One.
We call the One "Tao," but you may be more comfortable
with a term like "Holy Spirit," or "God,"
as long as you don't start visualizing
an old man on a throne floating in the sky.
The One is everything, and everything is the One.
Each of us is the One, and the One is inside each of us.
Just remember that it's an infinity thing -
the tiniest bit of infinity is still infinite.

Charisma was originally a religious term,
meaning "of the spirit" or "inspired."

It's an invisible energy with visible effects.
To let go, to just love, is not to fade into the wallpaper.
Quite the contrary, it's when we truly become bright.
We're letting our own light shine.
- Marianne Williamson

whereas a friend may speak, as the case requires,

While it is natural to feel some degree of
need for the approval of others, be careful.
If you find yourself unwilling to

and in severe cases, a condition termed co-dependency.

your goals and maintain your happiness.

it has got to be pursued with apostolic zeal.

I can enjoy this butterfly from a distance,

even away from the attentions of those
with whom they are most bonded.

while the other brings us joy. I choose joy.
