I believe in being fully present. That means you should be with the person you’re with.

One hundred and ten years from now no one who is here now will be alive.

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

The tension of opposites: Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted. A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. And most of us live somewhere in the middle.

Dying is only one thing to be sad over... Living unhappily is something else.

Be compassionate, and take responsibility for each other. If we only learned those lessons, this world would be so much a better place.

Are you trying to be as human as you can be?
