If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come.

As a bee seeks nectar from all kinds of flowers,
Seek teachings everywhere.
Like a deer that finds a quiet place to graze,
Seek seclusion to digest all that you have gathered.
Like a mad one beyond all limits,
Go where you please and live like a lion, completely free of all fear.
from the Dzogchen Tantra
This is true happiness: to have no ambition and to work like a horse as if you had every ambition. To live far from men, not to need them, and yet to love them. To have the stars above, the land to your left, and the sea to your right, and to realize all of a sudden that in your heart, life has accomplished its final miracle: it has become a fairy tale.
Nikos Kazantzakis

It’s so hard to forget pain, but it’s even harder to remember sweetness.
We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.
Chuck Palahniuk
Thinking about the Middle East, North Africa, and New Zealand. May they find peace, safety, and sweetness.

I ask not for any crown
But that which all may win;
Nor try to conquer any world
Except the one within.
Louisa May Alcott
