A spiritual life means: It is now or never.
Do not judge but love and be loved, if you want to be really happy.

If failure has the strength to turn your life into bitterness itself, then patience has the strength to turn your life into the sweetest joy. Do not surrender to fate after a single failure. Failure, at most, precedes success.
Let us not worry about the future. Let us only do the right thing Today, At this moment, Here and now. Let the future take care of itself.
