"I saw my life branching out before me like the green fig tree in the story. From the tip of every branch, like a fat purple fig, a wonderful future beckoned and winked. One fig was a husband and a happy home and children, and another fig was a famous poet and another fig was a brilliant professor, and another fig was Ee Gee, the amazing editor, and another fig was Europe and Africa and South America, and another fig was Constantin and Socrates and Attila and a pack of other lovers with queer names and offbeat professions, and another fig was an Olympic lady crew champion, and beyond and above these figs were many more figs I couldn't quite make out. I saw myself sitting in the crotch of this fig tree, starving to death, just because I couldn't make up my mind which of the figs I would choose. I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest, and, as I sat there, unable to decide, the figs began to wrinkle and go black, and, one by one, they plopped to the ground at my feet." 
— Sylvia Plath (The Bell Jar)


When love means to see somebody else becoming happy, how much love must there be in humanity?

The labyrinth of existence. The thread of Ariadne. The freedom of life is to let it go. There is a biological program in us.

Many people believe that sexuality is their reality. They define themselves through it.

Giving and Forgiving are very similar.

Where is the human whole and where is he part.

"Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad." 
— Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for." 
— Tom Bodett

There are just three persons in your life that are the foundation for happiness. Someone who takes care of you, you yourself taking care of yourself, and someone you can take care for.

"Happiness is a warm puppy." 
— Charles M. Schulz


“The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive.”

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.” 
― Albert Einstein

“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.” 
― Winston S. Churchill

“The belief that unhappiness is selfless and happiness is selfish is misguided. It's more selfless to act happy. It takes energy, generosity, and discipline to be unfailingly lighthearted, yet everyone takes the happy person for granted. No one is careful of his feelings or tries to keep his spirits high. He seems self-sufficient; he becomes a cushion for others. And because happiness seems unforced, that person usually gets no credit.”

“You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.” 
― Amy Carmichael
