• God puts you where God needs you. You are where you are supposed to be. The job you are doing may not be any easier on account of this, indeed it may be harder, even more urgent, but now you are centered, focused, clear. So this is where I am supposed to be. I always thought I was supposed to be somewhere else, doing something else, being someone else. But I realize now that I was mistaken. This does not mean that I can't or will not be doing something else. Just right now, I am where God wants me.

• La "zarza ardiente" no fue un milagro. Fue una prueba. Dios quería averiguar si Moisés podía prestar atención a algo durante más de unos minutos. Cuando Moisés lo hizo, Dios habló. El truco está en prestar atención a lo que ocurre a tu alrededor el tiempo suficiente para contemplar el milagro sin quedarte dormido. Hay otro mundo, aquí dentro de éste, siempre que prestemos atención.

• De eso trata Hanukkah: de intentar sobrevivir a la oscuridad con la remota esperanza de que aún quede algo de vida y luz en el universo. Es algo más que una historia religiosa. Los días se han ido acortando, imperceptible pero ineludiblemente más oscuros.... De cara a la noche del solsticio de invierno, todas las tradiciones espirituales celebran algún tipo de festival de la luz. Todos estamos silbando en la oscuridad, esperando contra toda esperanza que alguien allá arriba vea estas pequeñas velas de Hanukkah y capte la indirecta.
