For all the promise of digital media to bring people together, I still believe that the most sincere, lasting powers of human connection come from looking directly into someone else's eyes, with no screen in between.

Look at another person and understand no matter how much you disagree with them… if you look, you will find good in them.

When someone shows you their true colors, believe them.

When people show you who they are; believe them.

By telling you anything at all I'm at least believing in you, I believe you're there, I believe you into being.

When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.

Love comes in at the eye.

Usually, when I’ve met the people who are meant to be in a position of power, I’ve always made sure to give them a damn good soul stare—y’know, look right in their eyes, through the blackness of the pupils and into whatever conscious field exists within. Then lock the eyes on, but let them gently defocus so that the defined parameters of the visual physical go blurry and you can feel the energy behind it, the unseeable energy that isn’t made of photons. Then, if your mind is quiet, you will be informed of the quality of their essence, or at least of the manifest persona that they believe themselves to be.

Instead, try seeing yourself through the eyes of someone who admires you. They get it. They believe in you leaps and bounds. They aren’t connected to your insecurities and negative beliefs about yourself. All they see is your true glory and potential. Become one of your own die-hard fans, look at yourself from the outside, where all your self doubts can’t crawl all over you, and behold what shines through.

When lying to someone, look him straight in the eye.

Few things can help an individual more than to place responsibility on him, and to let him know that you trust him.

The most powerful form of self-belief comes from believing in something greater than you. Because when you’ve got purpose, everything becomes possible.

When people show you who they are ... believe them!

Seeing with the eyes of Christ, I can give to others much more than their outward necessities; I can give them the look of love which they crave.
