“If we want there to be peace in the world, we have to be brave enough to soften what is rigid in our heart, to find the soft spot and stay with it.  We have to have that kind of courage and take that kind of responsibility.  That’s the true practice of peace.”  Pema Chödrön

“The more we see the people around us from the inside, the clearer and more compassionate our communication becomes.  This is the basis of a ‘new we’.”  ThomasHübl
