Each of us carries a unique spark of the divine, and each of us is also an inseparable part of the web of life.

It isn't the past which holds us back, it's the future; and how we undermine it, today.

View your life from your funeral, looking back at your life experiences, what have you accomplished? What would you have wanted to accomplish but didn't? What were the happy moments? What were the sad? What would you do again, and what you wouldn't

View life as a series of movie frames, the ending and meaning may not be apparent until the very end of the movie, and yet, each of the hundreds of individual frames has meaning within the context of the whole movie.

Consider a movie: it consists of thousands upon thousands of individual pictures, and each of them makes sense and carries a meaning, yet the meaning of the whole film cannot be seen before its last sequence is shown. However, we cannot understand the whole film without having first understood each of its components, each of the individual pictures. Isn't it the same with life? Doesn't the final meaning of life, too, reveal itself, it at all, only at its end, on the verge of death?

In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.

Our greatest freedom is the freedom to choose our attitude.
