Divorced from the cosmos, from nature, from society and from each other, we have become fractured and fragmented.

You must not for one moment give up the effort to build up new lives for yourself.

What may look like a small act of courage is courage nevertheless. The important thing is to be willing to take a step forward.

No one should be left to suffer alone.

Sometimes we complain without thinking much of it, but the frightening thing about complaining is that every time we do, a cloud descends over our heart, and our hope, appreciation and joy gradually wane.

When we care for others our own strength to live increases. When we help people expand their state of life, our lives also expand. Actions to benefit others are not separate from actions to benefit oneself. Our lives and the lives of others are ultimately inseparable.

Take heart, and do not let disappointment or shame stop you from moving forward. The true outcome of life is only apparent at the very end.
