Until ->
Getting Over
Someone,
or
Something,
…is Hard…
…until…,
it isn’t
Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.
Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.
Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you.
~Pueblo Blessing
Man sacrifices his health
in order to make money.
Then he sacrifices money
to recuperate his health.
And then he is so anxious about the future
that he does not enjoy the present;
the result being that he does not live
in the present or the future;
He lives as if he’s never going to die,
and then he dies having never really lived
~Dalai Lama
I am more and more convinced
that our happiness or unhappiness
depends more on the way we meet the events of life
than on the nature of those events themselves
~Suzanne Gordon
