Discipline Is Wisdom And Vice Versa.

When We Love Something It Is Of Value To Us, And When Something Is Of Value To Us We Spend Time With It, Time Enjoying It And Time Taking Care Of It.

The Principal Form That The Work Of Love Takes Is Attention. When We Love Another Person We Give Him Or Her Our Attention; We Attend To That Person's Growth.

The Great Awareness Comes Slowly, Piece By Piece. The Path Of Spiritual Growth Is A Path Of Lifelong Learning. The Experience Of Spiritual Power Is Basically A Joyful One.

In Thinking About Miracles, I Believe That Our Frame Of Reference Has Been Too Dramatic. We Have Been Looking For The Burning Bush, The Parting Of The Sea, The Bellowing Voice From Heaven. Instead We Should Be Looking At The Ordinary Day-to-day Events In Our Lives For Evidence Of The Miraculous, Maintaining At The Same Time A Scientific Orientation.

Since True Listening Involves A Setting Aside Of The Self, It Also Temporarily Involves A Total Acceptance Of The Others. Sensing This Acceptance, The Speaker Will Feel Less And Less Vulnerable, And More And More Inclined To Open Up The Inner Recesses Of His Or Her Mind To The Listener. As This Happens, Speaker And Listener Begin To Appreciate Each Other More And More, And The Dance Of Love Is Begun Again.
