To greet the present is to part with the past and future.

Surrendering is not giving up--it is gaining strength.

To act upon the outer world and change it, you must be first be fine to act upon yourself.

Jealousy, and attempting to match others in life and stride, is self-abandonment.

Control is an illusion that you must give up.

Forgiveness is a skill gained by those willing to change.

Taking care of yourself will take care of more than yourself.

Find your bones. Believe in what you are.

If you take society__ definition of knowing oneself, you will become lost in the many translations.

Your actions show what you know, and your replies to obstacles give clarity into what you will learn.

People come as they are, and alter you as themselves.

Love is the bridge between the earth and the spiritual.

The shaping of character mimics the smallest detail of habit; humans are creatures that learn from observation. Each little thing you do, and each thing you allow yourself to become desensitized to matters. They create you__hether you know it consciously or not.

However, one day, this shallow living will not be enough for you. You are gifted with a questioning mind that will marvel at the deepest parts of the world around you. It will crave divine understanding because you are part of the divine whole, and it is the nature of the soul to seek to return to its spiritual state.

It is a beautiful gift to be a creator.

You do not control everything, nor does everything control you. You are not entirely at the hands of your environment, nor is it entirely at the hands of you.
