The ocean, now that's special! And so the paradox is: therefore all the drops in the ocean are special. This is the funny thing about paradoxes that I was saying in my other talk, that it's all true. You're ordinary and you're special at the same time. That's the brain twister and it's so difficult with the English language, but accept the idea of being ordinary now and don't resist anymore. Don't resist; so many resist the possibility of being ordinary. Invite that now, because an idea of being special invites separation. If somebody seems special to you, that they’re amazing, maybe untouchable, they’re so talented, so beautiful, so whatever, so smart… you feel separate if you feel inferior to them. And of course that goes both ways if you feel superior to others, special… then that creates separation. Whereas, if you allow yourself to feel that you're ordinary and you're just like everyone else, this creates non-separation, inclusion of everything, it brings everyone together.

Everything she says is true though. She has a very hypnotic/persuasive quality.
