Genuine awe connects us with the world in a new way.

We nurture our sense of connection with the larger whole, noticing that the whole is only as healthy as its smallest part.

Even as we recognize our resentment, bitterness, or jealousy, we can also honor our own wish to be happy, to feel free.

These are times when sympathetic joy comes naturally, but in a complex relationship the heart may not leap up so easily.

The heart is a generous muscle.

The skills available to us through mindfulness make it possible to bring love to our connections with others.
