If you could see them clearly, naturally you could do a great deal to get rid of them but you can't. You can only see one thing clearly and that is your goal. Form a mental vision of that and cling to it through thick and thin. |
| Intimacy is what makes a marriage, not a ceremony, not a piece of paper from the state. |
| Disconnecting from change does not recapture the past. It loses the future. |
| If we are lucky, we can give in and rest without feeling guilty. We can stop doing and concentrate on being. |
