The human is the only animal on earth that pays a thousand times for the same mistake. The rest of the animals pay only once for every mistake they make. But not us. We have a powerful memory. We make a mistake, we judge ourselves, we find ourselves guilty, and we punish ourselves.

To become masters of love, we have to practice love. The art of relationship is also a whole mastery, and the only way to reach mastery is with practice.

To have great faith is to have great power, because your intent, your will, is undivided. When your word isn’t dissipated by doubt, the power of your word becomes even stronger.

Today is the most wonderful day of your life. This moment represents eternity. It is the moment when you return to love by deciding to live in communion with our creator.

Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
