“I believe that the universe always provides us with clues, helpers, prompts, kicks in the butts, hints at solutions to problems—whatever we need to accomplish what we need to accomplish, or to learn something, or to move forward in some way, and so on. All we need to do is be open to hearing/seeing/receiving those messages. Every day, subtle (and not so subtle) things happen, things that we ignore, pass by, or perhaps don’t even notice. We need to learn to listen to the moment—to increase our awareness of, and be receptive to, those little prompts, clues, signals, and messages that come up for every one of us.”

“So I was hanging with a great friend at the ocean in Santa Monica and talking about how, even though it was beautiful, I missed being home for the bonding experience that is major Chicago winter storms. Having lived there, he got it. But his way cool wife sounded puzzled. Then I read her an email from my wife saying how our young neighbors were outside building an igloo while drinking beer. She got it.”

“The only way … you can be free from external rules is to create your own … rules that are even more rigid, but because they are your own, you feel … completely free.”
