We need to claim our power for something beautiful, something harmonious and something globally healthy.
Elizabeth Lesser
We can be the one to take the first courageous step toward the other and to do something or to try to do something other than rejection or attack. We can do this with our siblings and our mates and our friends and our colleagues. We can do this with the disconnection and the discord all around us.
Elizabeth Lesser
Recognition of the harm that patriarchy has caused to people and the planet does not mean that men are wrong and women are right rather it is a call for new organizational forms and for relishing gender differences within a context of equality.
Elizabeth Lesser
Love is the secret you unmask yourself to find it is the foundation of the spiritual life, the destination where all roads of the journey lead.
Elizabeth Lesser
I think the gender story will become less fraught with hard edges - and not that we'll have androgyny, but that men and women will move more fluidly into each other's domains.
Elizabeth Lesser
I actually don't think we're more divided than we were.
Elizabeth Lesser
I hope we have learned throughout centuries of revolution and reaction that it's really a shift in consciousness that we need. And I think there is a shift in consciousness among our human species. I think the human species is evolving, spiritually.
Elizabeth Lesser
To me the purpose of life is to enjoy it! It's to enjoy the gift, and to make sure that other people have an opportunity to enjoy the gift.
Elizabeth Lesser
May you listen to the voice within the beat even when you are tired. When you feel yourself breaking down, may you break open instead. May every experience in life be a door that opens your heart, expands your understanding and leads you to freedom.
Elizabeth Lesser
But when I learned about the dangers of rejection or attack, I thought, it's time to change this. What if we faced any pain we had caused each other and, instead of rejection or attack, could we listen? Could we forgive? Could we merge?
Elizabeth Lesser
What wants to live in you may be waiting...at the end of a long loneliness.
Elizabeth Lesser
I know that if we allow ourselves into the gridlock of tribalism, we're in trouble.
Elizabeth Lesser
Don't persuade, defend or interrupt. Be curious, be conversational, be real. And listen.
Elizabeth Lesser
Many women hear the word feminine and feel like it's a noose around their neck. Don't hold me to a mode of behavior because I'm a woman and you think this is how a woman should act, kind of thing.
Elizabeth Lesser
We are able to choose what we want - you don't have to accept one thing from one tradition. It's a melting pot.
Elizabeth Lesser
I have built up so much stuff , I am afraid I would cry forever, or have to go to sleep for weeks, or I would want to make some changes, and it is all just so overwhelming that we just keep going and going and going. It's a problem. It creates all kinds of illnesses of the physical and mental kind.
Elizabeth Lesser
If you have fathered a child, if you have given birth, if sex is a source of healthy pleasure, thank your pelvis and your reproductive organs for allowing you to feel the creative rhythms of life.
Elizabeth Lesser
If humanity does not evolve spiritually - each one of us and collectively - our species won't make it. So following that back to each individual - every day you are faced with choices.
Elizabeth Lesser
What mothers do - they act with love, at least good mothers do! They have a spirit of strong, fierce, protective energy - the way a mother would put her life on the line for her children - we need to put our life on the line for each other.
Elizabeth Lesser
If family and society tell you its unfeminine, not really womanly, to be aggressive, to speak up, to have strong opinions, to take up space, then women won't trust their own voice, because to be heard and to be influential, you've got to have a way to sing out with passion and love and self-trust - to sing out your song for everyone to hear.
