“I should at least mention that I am also discovering a degree of strength and of basic ability for humans to remain human in the direst of circumstances – which I also haven’t seen before.

“When you haven't found inner meaning, you will always substitute outer performance. It's the only way to fill that void, that sense of significance - that I am significant. So almost the degree of outer performance can, in many cases, mirror the lack of inner alignment.” WayFoundCasesHavensDegreesPerformancesMirrorsSignificantSignificanceSubstitutesVoidAlignment Author:Richard Rohr

“All the things that we've done as a species have had a limited scope. We're talking about melting the ice caps, raising the level of the seas dramatically, changing the distribution of every other species on Earth, perhaps wiping out one-third or half of them. The changes at work are geologic in scale. The level of change required to deal with it is enormous, too. It will require change in every country. It will require a degree of global cooperation that we haven't seen before.” CountryDoneEarthLevelsDealsHalfTalkingSeaHavensDegreesThirdsSpeciesScalesEnormousIceCooperationDistributionScopeCapsMeltingWiping Out Author:Bill McKibben
“I need to get better at learning how to stay calm. I'm a bit of a worrier and a stress cadet. Yoga helps me to some degree, but I haven't been able to figure out meditation yet.

“When you're in the grip of frustration, love can seem pretty much out of the question. Care is going to be a stretch. But appreciation is easy-even if it starts out kind of snide like, "I appreciate the fact I haven't fallen flat on my face ... yet."

One strong dose of appreciation can turn your perceptions around 180 degrees.” IfsKindFactsSeemsCareFacesTurnsStrongEasyHavensCoupleDegreesPerceptionAppreciateAppreciationPartnersFallenFrustrationFlatsLoved OnesSincerelyDose Author:Doc Childre
