Peace is something like happiness; you cannot say "I will be happy when..." and you can't say "I will be peaceful when..." Your happiness shouldn't depend on the situation you're in nor on the circumstances that surround you. In the same breath, you cannot wait for everything around you to become peaceful in order for you to say "I am peaceful." In both happiness and peace, there is a heart of strength, determination and steadfastness; a heart that has the power to make things happen. You have to be at peace. You have to be happy. Now. ↗

Writing itself is a dream. There are days of self doubt and deadlines and wondering how you're going to pay the bills until you write that bestseller. But it's still the best job I've ever had. I've also been able to help a lot of people and even inspire a few and that feels great. ↗

Twoja niezwykła męska uroda zawsze działała na mnie w ten sam sposób. Był to rodzaj podziwu. Gdybym mogła, patrzyłabym na Ciebie, cały czas bym na Ciebie patrzyła. Oglądałabym Twoją twarz we fragmentach. Zachwyt nad Tobą był jednocześnie zachwytem nad moim uczuciem do Ciebie. Istniało dla mnie coś takiego jak fenomen życia, fenomen muzyki i fenomen miłości, a więc Ty też stawałeś się kimś wyjątkowym, zadziwiającym, bo przecież byłeś moją miłością... ↗

Our actions are guaranteed to affect others. Because we are not alone in this world, much of our learning about ourselves comes from our interaction with others. Our relationships are our teachers. We learn from each other. ↗

I know there is poor and hideous suffering, and I've seen the hungry and the guns that go to war. I have lived pain, and my life can tell: I only deepen the wound of the world when I neglect to give thanks for early light dappled through leaves and the heavy perfume of wild roses in early July and the song of crickets on humid nights and the rivers that run and the stars that rise and the rain that falls and all the good things that a good God gives. ↗

What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the Sunset. ↗
