“In general, people are not drawn to perfection in others. People are drawn to shared interests, shared problems, and an individual’s life energy. Humans connect with humans.

All Human Beings are Descendants of Tribal People
“All human beings are descendants of tribal people who were spiritually alive, intimately in love with the natural world, children of Mother Earth. When we were tribal people, we knew who we were, we knew where we were, and we knew our purpose. This sacred perception of reality remains alive and well in our genetic memory. We carry it inside of us, usually in a dusty box in the mind’s attic, but it is accessible.” ~ John Trudell
Glimmers are Those Moments in Your Day that Make you Feel Joy
“Today learned about a term called a “glimmer”. Which is the opposite of a trigger. Glimmers are those moments in your day that make you feel joy, happiness, peace, or gratitude. Once you train your brain to be on the lookout for glimmers, the more these tiny moments will begin to appear.” ~ Unknown
We Often Think that Living According to a Certain Idea
“We often think that living according to a certain idea will awaken intelligence. What really awakens intelligence is action without the fear of not adjusting oneself to a standard or an ideal. This demands great awareness and pliability of mind.” ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
The Intelligent Man Who is Proud of his Intelligence
“The intelligent man who is proud of his intelligence is like the condemned man who is proud of his large cell.” ~ Simone Weil
