I owe my solitude to other people.

Kehidupan

Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth.

🖼 Gambar

Harapan

Unless one is able to live fully in the present, the future is a hoax.

🖼 Gambar

Doa

And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on.

🖼 Gambar

Kehidupan

So then, the relationship of self to other is the complete realization that loving yourself is impossible without loving everything defined as other than yourself.
