heart love-is bridges
The mind creates the abyss. The heart crosses over it. Love is the bridge.
spiritual love-is bridges
Go to the truth beyond the mind. Love is the bridge.
love-is mind-love bridges
We shall not cease from exploring,And the end of our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time.For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation. Go to the truth beyond the mind. Love is the bridge.
what would you say? And why are you waiting?
act almost chance formidable frankly interest maybe nuisance party point rodney self view
What's in it for them ? who knows? Maybe they just feel it's a chance to weaken the ACT Party and Rodney who would be a nuisance, he's a formidable person... frankly from the point of view of self interest it's almost like nuisance litigation.
call soon
If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting?
I have never lived a life so much larger than death. (93)
inspirational people honor
There is a delicate balance that we need to honor as we try to find meaning in any event or state of mind: Many people confuse finding meaning with finding a reason, putting our finger on something or someone for blame.
appreciation cheating lying
Hell is not fire and brimstone, not a place where you are punished for lying or cheating or stealing. Hell is wanting to be something and somewhere different from where you are.
grief loss rope
Loss is the absence of something we were once attached to. Grief is the rope burns left behind, when that which is held is pulled beyond our grasp.
inspirational pain atmosphere
If sequestered pain made a sound, the atmosphere would be humming all the time.
light meditation disappear
Meditation isn't to disappear into the light. Meditation is to see all of what we are.
mother pain children
When the heart acknowledges how much pain there is in the mind, it turns like a mother toward a frightened child.
believe ideas afterlife
Until we find out who was born this time around, it seems irrelevant to seek earlier identities. I have heard many people speak of who they believe they were in previous incarnations, but they seem to have very little idea of who they are in this one. . . . Let’s take one life at a time. Perhaps the best way to do that is to live as though there were no afterlife or reincarnation. To live as though this moment was all that was allotted. (132)
