I think people should elect a cat person. If you elect a dog person, you elect someone who wants to be loved. If you elect a cat person, you elect someone who wants to serve.
This loving person is a person who abhors waste — waste of time, waste of human potential. How much time we waste. As if we were going to live forever.
If you want to make a difference, the next time you see someone being cruel to another human being, take it personally. Take it personally because it is personal!
You cannot be the person they know and the great, glorious person you want to become. Not at the same time.
When a person should be spoken with, and you don't speak with them, you lose them. When a person shouldn't be spoken with and you speak to them, you waste your breath. The wise do not lose people, nor do they waste their breath.
If you are not in the process of becoming the person you want to be, you are automatically engaged in becoming the person you don't want to be.
Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are.
Everything you need you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else. Your completeness must be understood by you and experienced in your thoughts as your own personal reality.
Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts.
I remember wondering smokily whether anyone ever loves a person. People seem to love dreams instead, and for the lucky ones, the person is close to the dream. But it’s a dream all the same, a sticky dream. You unload the person, and the dream stays with you.
