More folks offering help and fewer folks wringing their hands about the problems. More hope bringers and fewer hope killers."

"Is there plenty of celebration in your life? How about your spiritual life? Is it an exercise in following rules and practices? Or does it look more like a joyous celebration?"

"The world has always teemed with a wide variety of spiritual thought and many differing journeys of the heart. But too often the world has used these differences as a weapon. How much agony has been wrought by what should be a thing of beauty - religious passion?"

"A sense of humor helps us to get through the dull times, cope with the difficult times, enjoy the good times and manage the scary times."
