Our true friends are those who are with us when the good things happen. They cheer us on and are pleased by our triumphs.
Paulo CoelhoThe world is being created and destroyed in this very moment. Whoever you met will reappear, whoever you lost will return. Donโt betray the grace that was bestowed on you. Understand what is going on inside you and you will understand what is going on inside everyone else. Donโt imagine that I came to bring peace. I came with a sword.
Paulo CoelhoTragedy depends on the way you see it. If you chose to be a victim of the world, anything which happens to you will feed that dark side of your soul, where you consider yourself wronged, suffering, guilty and deserving punishment. If you choose to be an adventurer, the changes - even the inevitable losses, since everything in this world changes - can cause some pain, but will soon thrust you forward, forcing you to react.
