It’s natural to die. The fact that we make such a big hullabaloo over it is all because we don’t see ourselves as part of nature. We think because we’re human we’re something above nature.

Build a little community of those you love and who love you

So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things.

When you learn to die, you learn to live.

Keep your heart open for as long as you can, as wide as you can, for others and especially for yourself.

Life is like a wrestling match- we struggle to fight but we never know that the only side that wins is the one with great love in it.

For me, living means I can be responsive to the other person. It means I can show my emotions and my feelings. Talk to them. Feel with them.
