“Tragedy always brings about radical change in our lives, a change that is associated with the same principle: loss.”

“Change is no loss, Will. Not always.”

“This spiritual and creative journey is about this dance of self, a self that must find its unique voice and then bring this voice back to the world. Spiritually it is about living our principles with those who share this type of path and with those who don’t. It’s living life from within, using the six perfections or our principles as guiding posts, as pointers but never absolutes. In our creative and spiritual life there are no absolutes because we are discovering ourselves, and our surroundings in a constantly changing world.”

“Loss is a significant force that can serve as a catalyst for change. It can bring about an awakening, drawing out something sacred within us.”

“That's the tragedy of falling in love; it brings with it the potential for loss.”

“Our focus must be on what we need to change about ourselves-our attitudes, our words, our actions-even if our circumstances and the other people in our lives remain the same.”
