“When you reach the end of what you should know, you will be at the beginning of what you should sense.”

Love and doubt have never been on speaking terms.

Let your best be for your friend.

Love that does not renew itself every day becomes a habit and in turn a slavery.

I slept and I dreamed that life is all joy. I woke and I saw that life is all service. I served and I saw that service is joy.

Not all positive change feels positive in the beginning.

Love the person, but give the person total freedom. Love the person, but from the very beginning make it clear that you are not selling your freedom.

Love begins with listening.

I have a wish. It as a fear as well – that in my end will be my beginning.

Every year, every moment, every breath & every blink can be a new beginning.

The one person who will never leave us, whom we will never lose, is ourself. Learning to love our female selves is where our search for love must begin.
