Life

“You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems and suffer and understand, for all that is life.”
__ Jiddu Krishnamurti

Suffering

“A truth that many people never understand is that the more you try to avoid suffering the more you suffer, because smaller and more insignificant things begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt… There is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No one can avoid them. But it’s better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams, than to be defeated without ever knowing what you’re fighting for… Because ignorance about who we really are, is the origin of all human suffering.”
__Thomas Merton __Paulo Coelho __Buddha.
