05/20/2005: "Quote of the day"

When space opens up, human beings have a tendency to fill it up for many reasons. It could be that those things give us a sense of security or importance. Maybe it helps us feel successful or it's an indication that our life has value. Whatever the reason (and don't get me wrong, I love some of that stuff!) many people have misidentified that stuff as who they are. When the space is no longer cluttered, we have an opportunity to make a shift from "doing" to "being". Being with others and being with ourselves. In the place of being we have an opening to start to create our life rather than react to it.
