“What we do and think in our own lives, then, becomes of extreme importance as it effects everything we're connected to.”

“We are not living in a private world of our own. Everything we say and do and think has its effect on everything around us.”

“Connection is why we're here; it is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives. The power that connection holds in our lives was confirmed when the main concern about connection emerged as the fear of disconnection; the fear that something we have done or failed to do, something about who we are or where we come from, has made us unlovable and unworthy of connection.”

“Even though we are each our own person...we're connected through the same dream! We are Seigaku!”

“Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we're frantic, life will be frantic. If we're peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace.”

“As we each began our journey, we learned the importance of connecting, of laughing with one another (not at one another), of sharing our lives.”
