“Prayer is something you give to yourself. It’s a gift. And you can do it anyway you want.”

“Listen, do yourself a favor. If you ask someone about something such as, “How are the kids,” make sure you really want to know.”

“The funny thing about prayers is you can absolutely make up your own if you want to.”

“Everyone has their own drama. If you want to join the others, go ahead if you want to do that. Or, you can stick to your own. Sometimes it’s a lot easier that way.”

“When you’re by yourself you can act as mature as you want, or as silly as you want – it makes no difference.”

“Contentment? Hmmmmmmmmm. That’s a really deep one. It requires diving deep into the moment and bringing up that contentment which lies deep within us. You may want to put your life behind you so that it doesn’t impede your way deeper. It’s alright to do something really slowly if that’s what it takes to do the thing you want to do.”

“Be content with what you are doing now – and see what happens. It’s all a question of what you want to focus on.”
