Never Ignore Your Inner Journey

The only journey is the one within.

- Rainer Maria Rilke

And the end of all of our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time

Of him who has chosen his destiny, Who has started
upon his quest for the source of his being.

higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness.

Never make your home in a place.
Make a home for yourself inside your own head.
You'll find what you need to furnish it -
memory, friends you can trust, love of learning,
and other such things.
That way it will go with you wherever you journey.
- Tad Williams

Eternity
I am drawn to the wild edge of the ocean of my being
My curiosity unbound, I test the limits of the limitless and the boundaries of the timeless.
I walk the path - the way - the way of ways - to the end that is not an end.

Do not lose hold of your dreams or aspirations.
For if you do, you may still exist but you have ceased to live.

Boldly Sail the Storms of Life
       

Appreciate Your Life

I will greet this day with love in my heart.
And how will I do this?
Henceforth will I look on all things with love and be born again.
I will love the sun for it warms my bones;
yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit.
I will love the light for it shows me the way;
yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars.
I will welcome happiness as it enlarges my heart;
yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul.
I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due;
yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge.
- Og Mandino

The key to forgiveness is to forgive from the heart -
not from the mind.
- Sheri Rosenthal

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly;
what is essential is invisible to the eye.
- Antoine de Saint-Exupery

The heart is always right -
if there's a question of choosing between the mind and the heart -
because mind is a creation of the society.
It has been educated.
You have been given it by the society, not by existence.
The heart is unpolluted.

- Osho
