You are good when you strive to give of yourself. Yet you are not evil when you seek gain for yourself. For when you strive for gain you are but a root that clings to the earth and sucks at her breast. Surely the fruit cannot say to the root, 'Be like me, ripe and full and ever giving of your abundance.' For to the fruit giving is a need as receiving is a need to the root.
Khalil GibranHe who does not see the kingdom of heaven in this life will never see it in the coming life.
Khalil GibranYour daily life is your temple and your religion. When you enter into it take with you your all.
