The middle way is a view of life that avoids the extreme of misguided grasping born of believing there is something we can find, or buy, or cling to that will not change. And it avoids the despair and nihilism born from the mistaken belief that nothing matters, that all is meaningless.

A good friend knows all your stories. A best friend helped you write them.

Not every father gets a chance to start his son off in his own footsteps.

I love you like a river that understands that it must learn to flow differently over waterfalls and to rest in the shallows. I love you because we are all born in the same place, at the same source, which keeps us provided with a constant supply of water.

Once best friends now strangers with memories.

Don't worry about those who talk behind your back, they're behind you for a reason.

To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
