Our greatest excuse is time. Either we do not have enough of
it or we have too much of it. Still, we can only live now, for-
ever. Future is only an illusion we project based on our experi-
ences and understanding. Past is a regenerated memory and
experience collection we re-produce according to our current
understanding and point of [...]

When you want something you also state that you don’t have
something. Your object of wanting is the very thing you’re
missing. In other words, you’re declaring your imperfectness.
There is something in you that still requires and is in need.
The person who is at peace and has achieved a state of
calmness needs no thing. He or [...]

(To) Be.
We are just becoming.
As long as we have to become, we are not. When we only are,
there is nothing else. A pure state of existence.

Life evolves like an ascending spring. Viewed from the side, it
reveals its upward spiral while the top view reveals a cyclical
continuation. Both ends vanish into the horizon without any
end or beginning. They are points that are relative to and only
limited by the scale of the observer.

Trust is about relying on someone, letting ourselves be vulner-
able and fragile, totally dependent on someone. It is a token of
something pure and innocent, a way of expressing confidence
and pure beliefs. Something beautiful and overwhelming.
Appreciation without apprehension. A bond that if you are
careful will last through almost anything, but with a misstep
can be broken as [...]

Physical existence is
a mask,
disguise,
larva of a butterfly,
working cloth,
marionette,
platform,
embodiment,
avatar,
outer jacket,
transformer,
agent,
shelter,
a shell that hides the pearl.
Our physical existence is a reflection of the essence. The
reminder of the real—a replication of the current state. A
mirror for the beholder.

It looks at nobody,
but sees everyone.
Perceives no difference,
lays no judgment,
still keeps you company.
Gives you strength,
supports you while you’re down,
doesn’t blame,
or put you in to a shame.
You are always welcome,
never excluded.
No matter what happens,
or what you do,
something is here to stay,
and that’s for you.
Unconditional Love.

Most of us are like TV sets. We receive information and repro-
duce it as it has been sent to us. Often, we just store things to
our memory and retract them when they are needed. The
reproduction, from the content perspective, is more or less the
same, but the quality may have been lowered in the process.
Watching [...]

We are used to valuing almost everything in our lives. Our
time and actions as well as the material things surrounding us
are measurable. Our days are spent talking, reading, watching,
and listening. We communicate and exchange information.
Our lives are stuffed with various kinds of data and material.
We are hungry for more information and we never seem to
get [...]

Disappointment is like happiness,
only a bit more serious.
It hugs you with its whole reach,
and does not let you go.
It whispers the story in your ear,
the way it should have happened.
It [...]
