Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into light.

Be still. Just for a moment. Listen to the world around you. Feel your breath coming in and going out. Listen to your thoughts. See the details of your surroundings. Be at peace with being still. In this modern world, activity and movement are the default modes, if not with our bodies then at least with our minds, with our attention. We rush around all day, doing things, talking, emailing, sending and reading messages, clicking from browser tab to the next, one link to the next. We are always on, always connected, always thinking, always talking. There is no time for stillness and sitting in front of a frenetic computer all day, and then in front of the hyperactive television, doesnt count as stillness. This comes at a cost: we lose that time for contemplation, for observing and listening. We lose peace.

Habits are safer than rules. You don't have to watch them. They keep you.

Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.

People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

Love songs last because they are about feelings that don't change.
