I was attracted to poetry, which is perhaps the purest of the art forms, where love is the medium of exchange and the nobility of love is considered. It's a land of higher ideals.

Think about what is in front of you, if you must think.

The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. When you abuse it, it reverses on you and it hurts you.

Place an object within your view, hopefully at about eye level. You might have to look down a little bit. Some people have a meditation table on which they put an object of concentration on.

Everything is dependent upon your state of mind. That is all there is, states of mind, ten thousand of them. Beyond all states of mind is nirvana.

Why waste your time being around people who drag you down? You don't live forever, at least in this life.
