“The marvel of being human only reveals itself when we do something for another without personal gain, when we forgive, and when we give abundantly, yet without expectations.”

“Only when we give joyfully, without hesitation or thought of gain, can we truly know what love means.”

“When we are securely rooted in personal intimacy with the source of life, it will be possible to remain flexible without being relativistic, convinced without being rigid, willing to confront without being offensive, gentle and forgiving without being soft, and true witnesses without being manipulative.”

“But when we are securely rooted in personal intimacy with the source of life, it will be possible to remain flexible but not relativistic, convinced without being rigid, willing to confront without being offensive, gentle and forgiving without being soft and true witnesses without being manipulative.”

“We cannot love a person with an all accepting, transcending and encompassing love without being hurt somewhat, without being disappointed, without being failed of our expectations. We cannot love without being broken, yet we cannot continue in love without being stronger than our brokenness.”

“When we can do nothing else, we can still love, without expecting any reward or change or gratitude.”
