“Serenity is possible amidst chaos when uncertainty is the wise companion.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“When others come to you for advice on what they should do with their life, do not give it. Your knowledge and experience is for you and you only. Instead, encourage them to choose that which brings them relief. Persuade them to develop, trust, and nurture their own inner compass, their own knowledge and experience. Any thing else is enabling co-dependence and psychological frailty.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“A few behaviors does not make an entire human being. If you focus on limited information, you will have a narrow view of a person or situation. If you turn your attention to authenticity (yours and theirs), you both become new, you both step into the light and a world of endless perspectives unfolds. All one has to do is perpetually concede to ignorance of all the facts, because you never will have them all, in any situation, about anyone.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“Wait and listen without ego or identification to any ideology or religion, shared grief or group of people. Wait and listen without inner dialog, without attaching previous judgements to what is, without anticipation and expectation. Wait and listen and trust that everything in the past, all that is, and the entirety to come is a part of one whole body of good.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“There are relationships where you are seen and allowed to fall into grace, into trust, into a sight that pierces your personal depths of hell. And then there are those connections where all you can do is offer and if they are unable to trust, quietly observe as they walk away.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
