Sacrifice is a passion that unleashes everything away from us so that it can be drawn into everyone around us.

Contrary to popular opinion, we are all a vast brotherhood of human beings whose very survival hinges not on what we keep, but on what we give. And it is in the giving that we not only survive to live another day, but we thrive to celebrate another day.

While real sacrifice is committed to the result, it relishes the effort

The eyes of love have 20/20 vision when focused on another, and become entirely blind when focused on ourselves.

If I can somehow focus on the pain of not focusing on my pain, I will soon find that pain healed simply because I forced myself to do the exact opposite of what my core humanity demanded I do…I sought to heal the pain of someone else instead.

Authentic love is deciding to live on a one-way street where all the arrows point down the street and not a single one of them point back up to where I’m standing.
