[image link] “An anarchist with morality is courageously kind, a creator, trailblazer, and a prime mover. An anarchist with religious beliefs is a cult leader. An anarchist without morality is simply a bully and a thug.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com (Thanks to my sister, Jennifer, for brilliantly tying together “courageous” and “kind”. Love you, Sis!)
“Do not tell others about God’s compassion. Do not preach your religion or tout your alliance with God. Be compassion. Be forgiveness. Be love and kindness and there is no need to convince anyone of anything, because a greater power is flowing through you, one which needs no endorsement and is beyond contestation.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“When your spouse, lover, significant other tells you what they want, give them exactly what they ask for. Don’t offer them more or less or a version you think they will like better. Listen carefully, without interference from the voice in your head. Then from love and kindness and sincerity, give them precisely what they ask for. Let them add. Let them take away without any resistance from you. This gives them a voice in the relationship and will inspire them to respect yours.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“Your greatest fault is the means by which you experience your finest quality, and it begins with being internally kind.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“The harshest critic is our internal dialog. When we are unkind to ourselves, it is impossible to be genuine and kind to others.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“I don’t respond to being played, manipulated, or told what to do. I need a solid sensible explanation. What moves me? Kindness. Sincerity. Straight forward authenticity.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“If you want to measure how authentic your life is, you are not being authentic. Authenticity is not comparison. It is kindness and ease. It is respect for the unique life path of every living thing, which are dramatically different from your own, yet absolutely perfect and ideal and the best possible path for that other life.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“To be certain of what another should do with their life is to deprive yourself of your own. Spend your attention on kindness and a desire for equanimity and understanding.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“When you think others are not giving you a chance or that they are being too hard on you or unforgiving, most often it is not them, but you that is. Everyone is a mirror. Be kind to you.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“Embrace it all: the hatred, the kindness, the right and wrong, the bitter and sweet. They are the ingredients of an affluent life. Cultivate a healthy relationship with every aspect of your humanity and you will find endless possibilities, creative solutions, and moments exceeding all expectation.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
