Experience seems to convince us that only fools trust, that only fools believe and accept all things. If this is true, then love is most foolish. For if it is not founded on trust, belief and acceptance, it’s not love.
This loving person is a person who abhors waste-waste of time, waste of human potential. How much time we waste. As if we were going to live forever.
Learn to bend. It’s better than breaking.
To live in love is to live in life, and to live in life is to live in love.
I’d like to be remembered for being a good, kind, loving, gentle man who attempted to live wisely, and who cared a lot.
The human need to play is a powerful one. When we ignore it, we feel there is something missing in our lives.
There is only the moment. The now. Only what you are experiencing at this second is real.
If you make mistakes, if you act like a human being- I will love you no matter.
Every moment spent in unhappiness is a moment of happiness lost.
The only lasting trauma is the one we suffer without positive change.
Loving means sharing joy with people.
The essence of education is not to stuff you with facts but to help you discover your uniqueness, to teach you how to develop it, and then to show you how to give it away.
There is nothing quite so satisfying, and so healing, as a good cry.
We all fear what we don’t know – it’s natural.
After all, the wrong is done. It is past and cannot be changed. We have only the present and the future upon which to move forward.
Happiness is intrinsic, it’s an internal thing. When you build it into yourself, no external circumstances can take it away.
Every day we are offered new means for learning and growing in love.
There is nothing wrong with making mistakes and not having all the answers, so long as we are willing to admit this and strive for personal betterment. Those who think they know it all have no way of finding out that they don’t.
Say “yes” to life! “Yes” to wonder, to joy, to despair. “Yes” to pain, “yes” to what you don’t understand. Try “yes.” Try “always.” Try “possible.” Try “hopeful.” Try “I will.” And try “I can.”
Love revels in and grows in the moment and the joy of the moment.
