Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses

“Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”

to judge

 a man 

by 

his weakest link 

or deed 

is like 

judging 

the power

In the confrontation between the stream

 and the rock, the stream always wins - 

not through strength but by 

perseverance. 

by Benjamin Franklin

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!"

~ Lao-Tzu

Water is fluid, soft, and yielding. But water 
will wear away rock, which is rigid and 
cannot yield. As a rule, whatever is fluid, 
soft, and yielding will overcome whatever is 
rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what 
is soft is strong

Strange but true

A BEAUTIFUL QUOTE By CHANAKYA

"Don't be too honest in the life because straight trees are chosen first for cutting"

“Sand taught me one thing,

“Sand taught me one thing, “you can't hold too many things no matter what you do to make them stay and no matter how much they want to stay, the wind always blow them away. So learn to let go and choose carefully which you want to stay because like the sand only those which are in the center of your palm will last.”

‘What is enlightenment?’

The guru was asked, ‘What is enlightenment?’ 

Ramakrishna replied, ‘You are asking this as a drop of water asks the ocean, ‘Who am I?’ The ocean says, ‘Come closer, jump in.’ The droplet of water jumps in and the ocean asks, ‘Now what are you?’ The water replies, ‘I am That. I am You, and yet I am exactly the same as before.’

Love is like handing man a gun.

Love is like handing man a gun. Having them pointing at your heart and trusting them not to pull the trigger.

-J. Harris

I let it go. Its like swimming against the current. 

It exhausts you. After a while you just have to let go 

and the river brings you home.

“Relationships are like glass. 
Sometimes it’s better to leave them broken 
than try to hurt yourself putting them back together.
 

~Memoirs of a Geisha

"Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are."

Alice Mackenzie Swaim

Courage is not the towering oak that sees storms come and go; it is the fragile blossom that opens in the snow.

Love is like a butterfly,

Love is like a butterfly, 

hold it too tight, 

it'll crush, 

hold it too loose, 

it'll fly
