Favorite Carla Quotes

[Steppingfeet]

I can't remember where Carla said this but my favourite is:

'We are all bozos on this bus!'

Hey Jim, thanks for quoting this. It was one of my favorite things she said. There's not just one instance of Carla saying this, actually. It was a refrain of hers, and became a refrain of ours.

Her balance of strength/confidence/self-knowledge with the humility of knowing that, as a human, she was inevitably bound to folly and frailty, inspired me as one of the best approaches to the serious and the light heart. That poise allows one to take themselves seriously enough to do hard work in consciousness with perseverance and backbone, but not so seriously that one becomes arrogant and self-involved, deaf to the calls of service around one.

As a bozo she was humble and approachable by all, never elevating herself above of an other in ultimate terms; but as a being of faith and intensive inner discipline, she was an anchor of light.

This particular forum, btw, "Olio"... I chose that word because it was Carla's term for "Miscellaneous".

A beautiful thread this is and beautiful heart openings elsewhere.

With love/light, GLB
