"Meditation is food for our inner being. We can live without it, but not well. As we deepen our breath and still our body, our thoughts follow into stillness. As we listen to the beating of our heart, and place it in rhythm with our breath, our emotions come alive, like a black-and-white movie suddenly exploding into colour."

No one can take that leap for us; and no one has to. This is our journey of faith."

"The first of the four noble truths of Buddhism, that there is suffering in life, was enormously important to me. No one had ever said it out loud.
