“Don’t try to fit me in a boxâ€� My life is not one dimensional. I’m the summer breeze and the hurricaneâ€� I’m the serene lake and the raging oceanâ€� I’m the gentle poet and the rough warriorâ€� I can build and I can destroy... I can romance and I can ravage... I can be wise and I can be silly... I can and WILL be everything that the length, depth, and breadth of life will allow... KNOW THIS! Your labels don’t limit meâ€� they limit your experience of me. Don’t confuse the two.”

“Life is suffering
Love is the desire to see unnecessary suffering ameliorated
Truth is the handmaiden of love
Dialogue is the pathway to truth
Humility is recognition of personal insufficiency and the willingness to learn
To learn is to die voluntarily and be born again, in great ways and small
So speech must be untrammeled
So that dialogue can take place
So that we can all humbly learn
So that truth can serve love
So that suffering can be ameliorated
So that we can all stumble forward to the Kingdom of God”
