Whether we are becoming more anxious or more loving, everything takes practice, and everything starts with one thought.

The self-judging person will always judge others. The rubric we develop for ourselves, the measuring stick we put against our own mind and body, generalizes to every other human being.

The next stage of evolution is the evolution of perception, the evolution of the mind.

The mind, just like the body, becomes exactly what it is fed. While the body is nourished by food, the mind is nourished by thoughts.
