There's a path from your HEART to mine.
I opened my arms to Love and Love embraced me like a Lover
All language is a longing for home.
The ground submits to the sky and suffers whatever comes. Tell me, is the Earth worse for giving in like that?
I have come to drag you out of yourself and take you into my heart. I have come to bring out the beauty you never knew you had, and lift you like a prayer to the sky.
Always check your inner state with the lord of your HEART.
Be relentless in your looking, because you are the one you seek.
You are as you are, an indescribable message on the air.
I can heal a broken heart with a smile.
Close the language-door, and open the love-window
We are the mirror as well as the face in it. We are tasting the taste this minute of eternity. We are pain and what cures pain both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours.
The moon has become a dancer at this festival of LOVE.
I lost everything i have, found myself.
Speak little, learn the words of eternity. Go beyond your tangled thoughts and find the splendor of paradise.
