“Do not rely on the rickety psychological scaffolding of regurgitated beliefs. The longest held belief does not make it the truest. Sift through your thoughts. Doubt. Question. Deconstruct what you think is true about the world and about you. Make yourself innocent again. Make your perspective fresh. Add your best to humanity.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com [The original […]
“You’ve done it! You’ve made the hard decision. You’ve pulled up your bootstraps, mustered huge courage, and now you’re ready to move forward and face the world with this new life change under your belt. Some advice: don’t let this new-found life-style become a mask – another identity for you to hide behind. Keep moving. Let go of what you think you know again and again. Make room for a quicker, broader evolution of you. Wake up new and innocent each day. What was true yesterday, may not be today and will not be (fully) tomorrow; but the truth you do need will follow you everywhere.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“It is not the rebel or outcast or disobedient that will destroy us. The greedy hypocrite is found in greater numbers and has the potential to infect humanity to its extinction. For us to survive and evolve and (even more important) live extraordinary lives, each individual must value personal honesty, practice accountability, and encourage connections. Otherwise, we will be a smattering of bones in dirt that some future life may or may not dust off out of curiosity.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com

“I can’t think of anything more worthy of our time and attention than absolute devotion to our personal evolution. An individual is of no use to the world when they have not a thing to contribute to it.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com [original hot! quote on 6/25/12 “growth + commitment + evolution”]
“All conflict can be dissolved within an instant. Perhaps not (immediately) in those around you, but within yourself absolutely. All you must do is see and listen beyond what you think you know, past what you believe to be true. It is simple and it can be difficult, but it is possible. It all depends […]
“There comes a point when you have done everything you can possibly do, when you have exhausted your effort and devotion to a thing and you realize you can either hold on to it and fight against life or let go altogether, even though every fracking cell in your body is connected to it.” -Amy […]
(And of course by “Universe” I mean God, Buddha, Allah, whatever all pervading power/energy/force you believe saturates our Universe.) “The Universe knows no limitation. It will explode, dissolve, expand, push and pull every bit of matter into the form it needs to conduct its symphony. Your melody will change, and the harmony of others around […]
The wind slightly rustles leaves of a tree as if to say, “Here I am. See me through the graceful movement of these leaves and branches. I am here, but can only be seen if I move things in my path.” The wind animates the tree and is like the invisible force of the universe, […]
“Gratitude perpetuates all good things. Wherever you genuinely express it, things thrive, evolve, even transform into something beyond your wildest imaginings.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
