“Good fiction writers have an instinctive understanding of human nature. That's what makes stories and characters captivating. Good spiritual writers share what they sincerely practice themselves.”
Donna Goddard“Being liked or not, having company or not, being understood or not, being acknowledged or not are not issues of concern on the spiritual path.”
Donna Goddard“If love isn't there, nothing will grow. If it is, there is always hope and it will win in the end. Love is vital and sacrosanct.”
Donna Goddard“Faith changes us - faith in something intrinsically good, something other than ourselves, something bigger than ourselves.”
Donna Goddard“We love with all our heart but we also keep our heart light and pliable. It has space. It breathes. It waits on life to give instructions. It sings with sweetness when the winds are soft and warm. It stands with calm patience when the storm is brewing. It lets go when endings have left their irrefutable mark. It moves. It heals. It hopes.”
Donna Goddard“Every wonderful quality "in" someone is waiting to be recognized in all of life's great symphony.”
Donna Goddard“To be creative, first we must be generous. Then we must have a quiet, indomitable belief in our own worth.”
Donna Goddard“Wise individuals frequently say very little, but what they do say hits the mark. Such remarks often remain in the mind of the recipient for a long time, possibly a lifetime.”
