This is, perhaps, the greatest challenge of our time – to love in the absence of any immediate rewards for our love.

Looking with eyes of love is about not only looking, but seeing.

I cannot be broken. I cannot be killed. I cannot fail. This is my identity. This is my core. I am infinite. I am permanent. I am unbreakable.

Those who love, truly love, can be coerced into nothing.

What if we all stopped fighting to belong and realized that we already do? What if we acknowledged, in each interaction with ourselves and with others, the eternal, beautiful interconnected energy that flows between us? What if we recognized our equality and celebrated our differences? Imagine how the world could be.

An act of love is not an act for you and not for me. It is an act for you as well as for me. Love is for us.

All love begins with the love within.

We are all searching for love, some at the bottom of a bottle, some at the casino, some in the eyes of a new lover. The more we search outside ourselves, we more desperate we become. We suffer not because love's unavailable, but because we are not looking in the right place.

When we stop looking for someone to complete us, we find completion in ourselves.
