Out Of Connection, Love And Compassion Arise

Without the rigidity of concepts, the world becomes transparent and illuminated, as though lit from within.

With this understanding, the interconnectedness of all that lives becomes very clear.

We see that nothing is stagnant and nothing is fully separate, that who we are, what we are, is intimately woven into the nature of life itself.

Out of this sense of connection, love and compassion.’- Sharon Salzberg, Lovingkindness: The Revolutionary Art of Happiness

Do Not Try To Blend In

It is easier to blend in than to be your true self. 
For the love of your life, 
for the love of your soul, 
and for the love of your future self, 
do not try to blend in. 
Do not try to be like others. 

Imitation has no respect. 

Life is more than just trying to be like others. 
The only person you can be is you. 
And no one can be like you. 

Whatever you do, do it for yourself. 
Do not try to be like others. 
Do not try to fit in. 
Do not try be who you are not. 
It is not good. 

If you want people to love you, 
really love you, to respect you, 
to accept you, be yourself. 
To do that, you must accept yourself.
