We love purely when we release other people to be who they are.
It is not your job to seek for love. It IS your job to seek within yourself all the barriers against its coming.
Sobriety itself is today’s high, for it is ultimately in the most centered consciousness that we find our power to transcend the world.

Angry people cannot create a peaceful planet.
