- Tao nghĩ một đứa không dám leo xuống cầu thang sẽ không bao giờ dám nhảy qua vòng lửa. Có lẽ bạn cũng từng phạm những sai lầm tương tự nhất là khi bạn còn quá trẻ. Quá trẻ thì không hiểu được rằng ước mơ đôi khi không phải là điều nhất định phải thực hiện cho bằng được hơn nữa có thể là điều người ta không có khả năng thực hiện trong suốt cuộc đời mình. Gặp một chú lùn ước mơ lớn lên sẽ chơi bóng rổ hay một chú bé dị tật ở chân nuôi mộng sau này trở thành ngôi sao bóng đá thì đó không phải là điều mà bạn nên chế nhạo. Một ngày nào đó bạn sẽ nhận ra ý nghĩa của ước mơ không phải ở chỗ nó có phù hợp với khả năng thực tế hay không. Điều quan trọng là nó cho phép bạn sống thêm một cuộc đời nữa với cảm xúc của riêng bạn, trong một thế giới mà bạn có thể hóa thân một cách hồn nhiên nhất vào đấng toàn năng. Như vậy, ước mơ không chỉ là chiếc bàn là tinh thần giúp bạn ủi phẳng những nếp nhăn của số phận mà còn là cách để bạn bắt gặp hình ảnh của Thượng Đế trong bản thân mình. ↗
If only the physical aspects of hatha yoga are used, it is called ghatastha yoga (ghata means “physical effort”). Modern expressions like “fitness yoga” and “power yoga” that flourish within gym classes are within the same category, even if they do not derive from the original exercises’ rhythm and succession. In many instances “power yoga” has a positive effect on physical health; but if there is no aim to ease the mind, to gain self-insight and control of your thoughts, and to experience the divine within you and within the universe, the deeper meaning of yoga and - possibly life - is lost. ↗

I have one life and one chance to make it count for something... My faith demands that I do whatever I can, wherever I am, whenever I can, for as long as I can with whatever I have to try to make a difference. ↗
Between the natural way and the path of grace there is a deep abyss. It is in that gap that we live our lives as a giant struggle between good and evil, Satan and God, despair and love. Whenever despair wins, it is the natural way. Whenever love wins, it is a moment of grace. When love is victorious and defeats despair completely, you've reached the path of grace. ↗
Like antidepressants, a substantial part of the benefit of psychotherapy depends on a placebo effect, or as Moerman calls it, the meaning response. At least part of the improvement that is produced by these treatments is due to the relationship between the therapist and the client and to the client's expectancy of getting better. That is a problem for antidepressant treatment. It is a problem because drugs are supposed to work because of their chemistry, not because of the psychological factors. But it is not a problem for psychotherapy. Psychotherapists are trained to provide a warm and caring environment in which therapeutic change can take place. Their intention is to replace the hopelessness of depression with a sense of hope and faith in the future. These tasks are part of the essence of psychotherapy. The fact that psychotherapy can mobilize the meaning response - and that it can do so without deception - is one of its strengths, no one of its weaknesses. Because hopelessness is a fundamental characteristic of depression, instilling hope is a specific treatment for it it. Invoking the meaning response is essential for the effective treatment of depression, and the best treatments are those that can do this most effectively and that can do without deception. ↗
Ever felt like you are more than flesh and bones and blood that decay back into cosmic dirt? You are. Your existence did not begin with your birth and it will not end with your death. Your soul lived before and will live on and on and on...so what you do now matters later. Choose wisely. ↗
Take a photograph, It'll be the last. Not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here. I don't have a past, I just have a chance. Not a family or lonely plea remains to say. (chorus) Rain rain go away, Come again another day. All the world is waiting for the sun. Is it you I want, Or just the notion of your heart to wrap around So I can find my way around. Safe to say from here, You're getting closer now. We are never sad 'cause we are not allowed to be. (chorus) x2 (x2) To lie here under you, Is all I could ever do. To lie here under you... Rain rain go away, Come again another day. All the world is waiting for the sun. Rain rain go away, Come again another day, All the world is waiting for the sun. All the world is wairing for the sun. All the world is waiting for the sun. ↗
