The most powerful catalyst for change is the death of the ego – that moment when identity means nothing and joy means everything.
– Lorien Neargarder
Yoga instructor in South Bay who works with cancer patients, their family and caretakers. I know she is to be of kindred spirit. Instead of turning away, some people will reach out to those who suffer because the need is greater and the value of service that much more worthwhile. She embodies the true meaning of the word, “compassion”.
People are like stained – glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
Lovely souls at class tonight… Namaste.
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.
Beautiful people do not just happen.
~Elizabeth Kubler Ross
I am filled with gratitude for the beautiful people I have come across on my path; some I travel with as fellow travel companions, some I have the honor to guide, some kindly guide me – for this journey goes on and on.
