If there is suffering, then it’s best to accept it, because it won’t go away just because you pretend it’s not there. If there is joy, then it’s best to accept that too, even though you’re afraid it might end one day.

The dunes are changed by the wind, but the desert never changes. That’s the way it will be with our love for each other.
When I asked you if you wanted to, I was not testing your courage. I was testing your wisdom.
This miracle is in the small things of daily life; we must live in the understanding that at every moment there is a way out of each problem, the way of finding that which is missing, the right clue to the decision which must be taken in order to change our entire future.
Because i’ve suffered. Because many times in my life i have tried to love with all my heart, and my love has wound up being trampled or betrayed.
