throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails
– Mark Twain
Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.
How could you reach the pearl by only looking at the sea? If you seek the pearl, be a diver: the diver needs several qualities: he must trust his rope and his life to the Friend’s hand, he must stop breathing, and he must jump.
The mother is everything –
she is our consolation in sorrow,
our hope in misery,
and our strength in weakness.
She is the source of love, mercy,
sympathy, and forgiveness.
He who loses his mother
loses a pure soul
who blesses and guards him constantly.
No other eyes steal my soul like the set you possess. The way you smile through them, they give me hope. They make me feel loved.
Perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see life with a clearer view again.
Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
