Why do we read? There is no clear answer to this question. One reads to pass the time on the train, another looks for answers to specific questions, the third escapes from gray reality, the fourth develops imagination. Some people have been reading a lot for a long time, some will read a couple of books on the advice of friends, and some will limit themselves only to the required school literature list.

What is reading?

As M. Tsvetaeva said, reading is unraveling, “extracting the secret that remains behind the lines, beyond the words.”

For some it brings inexpressible pleasure, for others - inexpressible boredom. The main thing is that each of the books you read will leave its mark: it teaches you to be kinder to others or understand yourself better, it gives answers to questions or, on the contrary, it makes you think about life.

Beautiful prose keeps the reader coming back again and again. Savor every word. It leaves a pleasant aftertaste after reading it. Kind, bright novels reveal the inner world of the characters and make you experience things with them.

Touching and life-like stories touch the invisible strings of the soul and do not leave you indifferent. They are so captivating that the reader often does not notice how tears well up in his eyes. These are tears of joy or sadness, delight or indignation. One way or another, prose about life and fate makes you sympathize with the characters. It enriches a person’s life and gives him new emotions and impressions.

What books should I read?

Reader interest is an unpredictable thing. Everyone perceives the message contained in the book in their own way. Much depends on the character, worldview, experience and imagination of the readers. They have different ideas of what the characters look like or the places where the events take place. But no one remains indifferent to what he read; he can be outraged or delighted, agree with the author’s point of view or categorically against it.

It is difficult to say which word or phrase, facts or thoughts, plot or its details touched the hidden strings of the soul, which excited the reader, made him cry and think about the meaning of life. Beautiful prose is not just a literary text, it is lines that transform and improve a person.

Some are not left indifferent by pure, selfless love, which can cause a trembling heartbeat. The feelings of others overturn the difficult trials that befall the heroes of the books, who, despite the harsh reality, retain their inner light and appreciate happy moments.

Still others prefer to “philosophize” with the author about life. Beautiful prose for them is words that they savor and appreciate, enjoying every phrase. The hearts of the fourth are pierced by some separate detail, a tangible and memorable touch.

K. Atkinson's book “Life after Life” is filled with the expectation of death. It’s hard to call her kind and bright. But the plot attracts and fascinates the reader. A deep and unusual novel that makes you think about life and death, losses and gains.

“Notre Dame de Paris” and “The Last Day of a Man Condemned to Death” by V. Hugo - prose about life and love. Stories that have survived centuries. Books by D. Rubina “The White Dove of Cordoba” and “Leonardo’s Handwriting”, “Medea” by L. Ulitskaya, “The Burning Bush” by B. Vasiliev and many others will complement this list. In fact, they not only make you sympathize with the characters and sincerely cry, but help you cherish loved ones, appreciate the present moment and move on.

There are two loves in this world.

There are two loves in this world.

Love drawn on candy wrappers, and love inside a chocolate bar. The love of immature girls and the love of mature women and men. Love is cinema and love is not cinema. Love is a book - and love is not a book. Love of women's magazines for readers of women's magazines and real love. The love that really exists, and the love that people have invented, the one that people want to see, the one that they want to believe in and for which they are supposed to live.

There are two loves in this world, love for the sake of love and love for the sake of relationships. Love for yourself and love for each other. The only question is what kind of love does each of us believe in? Or he thinks he believes it. Or he doesn't believe it. Or he lies and says he doesn’t believe it. I believe in love for the sake of relationships, in love for each other. In love for the sake of understanding each other. In love for the sake of sacrifices for each other. Into the love of real life, not cardboard heroes. The love that half the people on this Earth live in, and not the love that the other half is looking for and will never find. It's hard to find something that doesn't exist, right?

It’s just as difficult to find something that doesn’t exist as it is to call a jump from a roof love for the sake of a relationship.

There is an opinion that in order to understand love, you need to destroy it. The opinion, of course, is not correct from the beginning. The opinion of weak and weak-willed people who prefer to live the rest of their days in ignorance of what they really feel. After all, if something exists, then it can somehow be described and characterized. And if it is impossible to characterize it, then one can doubt whether it really exists.

It is possible to understand love. You can take it apart bit by bit. At the same time, it can not be destroyed or broken. Understanding how you live and why is good for your immune system. Not understanding what is happening around you and hiding behind pathetic excuses that love is too complex for brain activity is a passive and amorphous attitude towards life.

Love does not live without sacrifices. She does not live without trust and understanding. She does not live without the willingness to sacrifice something for each other, but most importantly, she does not live without the understanding that your little man is ready to give you as much as you are ready to give him. And the willingness to give without mutual or reciprocal reaction is the most critical height of selfishness. What can be called love for the sake of love, and not love for the sake of relationships. What can be called by any name: 0=0, the sum of squares does not change. But not at all: 1 1=2. And love for the sake of relationships is always 1 1=2.

Love for the sake of love is the love of beautiful phrases, empty words, sublime deeds, which for some reason do not go beyond the scope of books of various types of bindings, which those same lovers of speculating about “beautiful” deeds love to read.

Millions of people believe that love is when you jump from the roof for another, simply because you love, and you don’t need anything in return. And love is actually the willingness to do for another what you yourself do not need at all. Change your habits, your traditions, in the end, dye your hair the hated white color for the sake of your loved one, but clearly realizing that he is ready to make his small (or big?) sacrifices. This is the love of reality, the love of life.

What is a sacrifice? Sacrifice is love. Love does not exist without sacrifice. How can one say that a person loves if he is not ready for sacrifice? Respect, harmony, understanding - all these are components of a good relationship, but without the willingness of sacrifice, it will always remain just a relationship without love.

After all, love for the sake of relationships, the willingness to sacrifice for each other is a willingness to make concessions for concessions. This is not about a “give and take” relationship. It's about realizing each other's readiness, about the unshakable belief that your person will do as much for you as you do for him. After all, even an apple has a core, and the core of love is the ability to sacrifice. And the greater the sacrifice, the stronger the love. The only question is, what is this sacrifice for, for the sake of the relationship or for the sake of oneself? Love for the sake of love or love for the sake of relationships?

There are probably countless people who still haven’t figured out what love is. These people think that love is such a notorious feeling bomb. That over time, like any bomb, it explodes, fragments fly in different directions, touch nearby people, causing them wounds of varying severity. Of course, after such an explosion, in their opinion, someone may leave this world, someone will receive injuries of varying severity, and someone may be spared the deadly fragments. Over time, the wounds will subside, the scars will heal, and not a trace of love will remain. Just a habit. So most people think that love is a reflection of cinema, but over the years it remains a habit. But they are wrong. Couples live, passion subsides, wounds from fragments of an exploding love bomb heal, but love remains. People are 60 years old, they have long lived a calm life, free from the passions of youth and the cycle of sex, but love lives on. And not a habit, but real healthy love.

All because love is not the passion of youth, not bed pleasures, not loss of one’s head, and not iron-clad family stability and harmony. Love is a sacrifice. The sacrifice is love. Love is always the same. Love cannot be different. The love of mother and child, the love of sister and brother, the love of friends, the love of husband and wife. And in a relationship rich in all the colors of the rainbow, love is far from the most important and always available element. But how much can you give for it?

Love for relationships and love for love. In both cases there is this feeling that is unbearable for many. The only question is who it is for. For each other? Or for yourself? After all, there are only two loves. Love that is and love that is not.

Do you think it is good to live in this world?
The longer I live, the more and more questions I ask myself, and there are not always answers to them....for example, is there life after death, such concepts as heaven and hell, do miracles exist on our earth, such things as magic and finally, what is the meaning of our life...?
We will try to discuss all the topics that are touched upon here....
Our first topic…is “Do we need to live and why?”
You can reason differently... some believe that there is nothing to live for, and that there is nothing interesting in this world... others believe that life is beautiful and that there is only one, and we need to get as much as possible from it, even if it is grief, disappointment and sadness….
But, as I think... you shouldn’t dwell on your failures, you need to continue to live and try to change your life and maybe then everything will work out!!! And in no case should you take your own life, this is the biggest sin and mainly this happens due to some kind of stupidity. I understand that you can say that it is easy for someone to say, since he has not yet encountered such problems and that he would behave the same way in their place, but you must admit,...death is not a solution and again you will say the opposite.... “Death is the solution to absolutely all problems, if I’m gone, then my problems will solve themselves!” But, have you thought about the people to whom you are dear and who love you very much? ... NO! You didn't think about them... and this only shows that you only thought about yourself, and not about others, and of course, you didn’t think about how hard it would be for them without you….
Life, I agree, is a difficult thing and you don’t know what awaits you ahead, and what will happen tomorrow... this may be the most unexpected thing for us... but you shouldn’t give up and you should always believe, because hope dies last!
I can give a very clear example, it shows both the positive and negative side of our life... in one second, for example, 10,000 children are born in the world, this is the positive side, and the same number, even more, die (negative)
There is a lot of good in the world, you just probably haven’t noticed it yet... but if you look closely, you will see everything...
Each person decides for himself what to believe and what to hope for.... only you can change this and maybe then everything will turn in your direction, and you won’t have to take your life and commit rash acts….
And we also live in order to please others... relatives and friends, acquaintances and enemies... in order to improve, achieve goals, justify hopes and amaze, sadly enough, with our failures.....
Topic 2: “Is there life after death?”
This, of course, is also a controversial issue.....unfortunately no one knows this....no one knows what will happen next...although there are predictors of the future, of course it is difficult to believe that they can see something supernatural...but sometimes it turns out to be true. But of course there are cheaters who only pretend that they know everything, for example, about the afterlife... but in fact, all this is just to make money by deception...
In ancient times, people believed that there was an afterlife, but where did they get it from…..where did such concepts as God come from?…with every reasoning and answer, we only do that we stumble upon more complex questions….
God...over time, more and more people begin to believe in God, even when no one has seen him.....is he flesh or spirit...does he exist at all.....if he exists, then how to explain the cosmos...after all, he is like infinity without beginning and end. People at first believed that he was in the sky, but what about the planes???.....if he is in the heavens, then why don’t people on the plane, looking out the window, see him.....we come to the conclusion that God is like a myth ….a long-lasting myth that continues to be believed. Where did people get this concept of God?...
I believe that people simply had to believe in something, otherwise they would not have survived, and over time they came up with something that helped them during a difficult period of time and what they could believe in and whom to pray to. That's all... you can talk about this for a long time, but it is impossible to convince... a person believes in what is easier for him to believe in and this cannot be avoided, and it also partly depends on religion, if a person does not believe, then this cannot be changed, unless he finds himself in a situation...in which he cannot do without faith. For example: If your loved one and the closest and dearest person is lying on the operating table and you are told that 50/50...either he will die or live, then you will go and light a candle and hope and believe...that's all that remains... because you can't help him in any way.
Topic 3: “Heaven and Hell”
Previously, in Ancient Egypt and in other countries, clothes, coins, and generally anything that the deceased might need in the afterlife were placed in graves, for example, coins were placed so that the deceased could cross the river of the dead, for this he had to pay. We think that in heaven everything is beautiful, everyone is kind, but in hell there are devils, lava and all kinds of evil spirits... and again this was taken from someone’s imagination, someone said something and everyone believed it, but what about the evidence then? where are they?...as some say, “You have to believe the facts,” but there are no facts...there are only words...and history.
In modern times, it is difficult for a person to understand all this, then people did not think about life, about fate... a person came who was not like others and could calmly declare that he communicates with spirits or that he is a messenger of God... and everyone believed. People didn’t have questions about how he communicated with him, but I know that they brewed herbs that they used before the session, a herb with a special effect, like a drug, that is, they didn’t understand, they were talking nonsense, and people perceived it as advice.
People also believe that if they do not commit sins, they will go to heaven. Of course, I won’t talk about the fact that you can go to hell without sins... because this is complete absurdity! But where did they get this from? why did they decide this? Of course, this is logical when compared with the theory about God, but it is the same version without facts. It’s just easier for people to believe in this and that’s all, they hope that they will go to heaven and there a new life will begin without grief and bad weather.
As far as evidence is concerned, there is not a single person who returned from the afterlife who could talk about heaven or hell. There is clinical death, usually when a person returns to life, he says that he walked through a tunnel to the white light... no one can still explain this phenomenon.
Of course, I want to believe that somewhere up there there are angels who help us all.
Topic 4: “Are there miracles in our world?”
Miracles….what is it?…the fulfillment of desires or someone’s will?…Are these our actions or is someone pulling the strings, like in a puppet theater…Do we decide for ourselves or is everything decided for us?…
If miracles exist, and miracles are the fulfillment of desires, then why do loved ones, relatives, friends, acquaintances, enemies, pets die......people...why do people hope for a miracle, although most know that it will not come true...why do people constantly believe why hope... because without it there is no way. Life is all about waiting, believing, hoping, seeking.
Maybe miracles are a pure coincidence that should not have happened?...maybe for us it’s happiness, but for them it’s an absurd mistake that they couldn’t stop...
My opinion about this may be wrong, but miracles are rather our actions…..we did this and a miracle happened, but if we would have done it differently…..who knows…perhaps this would not have happened.
Everything is so complicated and incomprehensible that it is better not to delve into it, by discovering something new, new questions appear and there is no escape from it.....
Regarding the question “Are there miracles in our world?” I can say with confidence: Yes, they exist, someone will say that there are very few of them, I say that there are many of them and we do not always notice everything, but there are many of them, as well as our actions.
"Magic"
We can say that miracles and magic are the same, but if you go deeper, there is nothing like it.....although there is, perhaps, one similarity....in my conclusion, if a miracle is achieved thanks to our actions, then magic too....
For example: Wizard….to do a little magic, you need to act.
On the other hand, magic is a small part of the miracle.
And our last topic….topic number 5 “What is the meaning of life?”
The meaning of life….over time people think about this….I’m 15 and every day I’m slowly getting closer to the answer….but I know for sure that I have to live every second…
I quote:
- “To find out the price of a year, ask a student who failed an exam.
To find out the price of a month, ask a mother who gave birth prematurely.
To find out the price of the week, ask the editor of the weekly magazine.
To find out the price of an hour, ask a lover waiting for his beloved.
To find out the price of a minute, ask someone who is late for the train.
To find out the value of a second, ask someone who has lost a loved one in a car accident.
To find out the value of one thousandth of a second, ask an Olympic silver medalist."
-And to find out the price of human destiny, ask your angel.
“Every year millions of people are born on Earth. They turn tons of meat, fruits and vegetables into tons of experiments. We move, we reproduce, and then we die. There is nothing unusual in this, but this is where the meaning of our lives lies.”
The meaning of life: To be born, to eat, to move, to multiply, to die.
To be freed from having to be born again and again is the best gift a person can hope for.

The meaning of life: “The goal of everything is development”

Conclusion:
Believe: “Believe or not believe, it doesn’t matter. It’s just interesting to ask yourself more and more questions.”

Each person is an individual with different parameters, which, like a computer filling, can perform different operations at different times. A person is certainly not a computer, he is much cooler, even if it is the most modern computer.

Each person contains a certain grain, this is called the grain of truth; if a person looks after and cherishes the grain within himself, then an excellent harvest will grow that will delight him!

You understand that grain is our soul, in order to feel the soul, you need to have some kind of supersensible abilities.

Another example - A person produces a rock every day, leaving only precious stones. If, of course, he knows what precious stones look like, but if he only sorts through ore, skipping diamonds and other precious stones, believing that they are just stones, then this person has problems in life.

Life is such a thing, it is like a man who shovels ore to find diamonds! What are diamonds? This is the motivation that gives us to act in this world, but the fuses of motivation are constantly melting, we need to refuel our motivation in order to continue to act effectively. Where does motivation come from? The cornerstone is information, correct information is like a compressed spring, if we accept it correctly, the spring opens up and shoots exactly at the target and we reach the target very quickly. If we treat motivation incorrectly, then why, then the spring shoots into the forehead. Why is this happening? Because our inner intention is the basis for why we act, what we want to get, and whether our motivated actions will harm others!

In this article I have collected the most motivational quotes and statuses, as they say, of all times and peoples. But of course, it’s up to you to choose what will hook you most. In the meantime, let's get comfortable, put on a very smart face, turn off all means of communication and just enjoy the wisdom of poets, artists and just plumbers!

Many and wise quotes and sayings about life

Having knowledge is not enough, you need to apply it. Wishing is not enough, you must act.

And I'm on the right path. I'm standing. But we should go.

Working on yourself is the hardest work, so few people do it.

Life circumstances are shaped not only by specific actions, but also by the nature of a person’s thoughts. If you are hostile to the world, it will respond in kind to you. If you constantly express your dissatisfaction, there will be more and more reasons for this. If negativism prevails in your attitude towards reality, then the world will turn its worst side towards you. On the contrary, a positive attitude will naturally change your life for the better. A person gets what he chooses. This is reality, whether you like it or not.

Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right. Ricky Gervais

Year after year, month after month, day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute and even second after second - time flies without stopping for a moment. No force can interrupt this run; it is not in our power. All we can do is spend time usefully, constructively, or waste it in a harmful way. This choice is ours; the decision is in our hands.

Under no circumstances should you lose hope. The feeling of despair is the true cause of failure. Remember you can overcome any difficulty.

Man is designed in such a way that when something lights up his soul, everything becomes possible. Jean de Lafontaine

Everything that is happening to you now, you once created yourself. Vadim Zeland

Within us there are many unnecessary habits and activities on which we waste time, thoughts, energy and which do not allow us to flourish. If we regularly discard everything unnecessary, the freed up time and energy will help us achieve our true desires and goals. By removing everything old and useless from our lives, we give the opportunity to bloom to the talents and feelings hidden within us.

We are slaves to our habits. Change your habits, your life will change. Robert Kiyosaki

The person you are destined to become is only the person you choose to become. Ralph Waldo Emerson

Magic is believing in yourself. And when you succeed, then everything else succeeds.

In a couple, each should develop the ability to feel the vibrations of the other, they should have common associations and common values, the ability to hear what is important to the other, and some kind of mutual agreement on how to act when they have certain values do not match. Salvador Minujin

Every person can be magnetically attractive and incredibly beautiful. True beauty is the inner radiance of the human Soul.

I really value two things - spiritual closeness and the ability to bring joy. Richard Bach

Some people smile because you smile. And some are just to make you smile.

He who reigns within himself and controls his passions, desires and fears is more than a king. John Milton

Every man ultimately chooses the woman who believes in him more than he does.

One day, sit down and listen to what your soul wants?

We so often do not listen to the soul, out of habit we are in a hurry to get somewhere.

You are where you are and who you are because of how you perceive yourself. Change the way you think about yourself and you will change your life. Brian Tracy

Life is three days: yesterday, today and tomorrow. Yesterday has already passed and you won’t change anything about it, tomorrow has not yet come. Therefore, try to act honorably today so as not to regret.

A truly noble person is not born with a great soul, but makes himself such through his magnificent deeds. Francesco Petrarca

Always expose your face to the sunlight and the shadows will be behind you, Walt Whitman

The only one who acted wisely was my tailor. He took my measurements again every time he saw me. Bernard Show

People never fully use their own strengths to achieve good in life, because they hope for some force external to themselves - they hope that it will do what they themselves are responsible for.

Never go back to the past. It kills your precious time. Do not stay on the same place. The people who need you will catch up with you.

It's time to shake bad thoughts out of your head.

If you are looking for the bad, you will definitely find it, and you will not notice anything good. Therefore, if all your life you wait and prepare for the worst, it will definitely happen, and you will not be disappointed in your fears and concerns, finding more and more confirmation for them. But if you hope and prepare for the best, you will not attract bad things into your life, but simply risk being disappointed sometimes - life is impossible without disappointments.

Expecting the worst, you get it, missing out on all the good things in life that actually exist in it. And vice versa, you can acquire such fortitude, thanks to which in any stressful, critical situation in life, you will see its positive sides.

How often, out of stupidity or laziness, people miss their happiness.

Many are accustomed to existing by postponing life until tomorrow. They keep in mind the coming years, when they will create, create, do, learn. They think they have plenty of time ahead. This is the biggest mistake you can make. In fact, we have very little time.

Remember the feeling you get when you take the first step, no matter what it turns out to be, in any case it will be much better than the feeling you get just sitting still. So get up and do something. Take the first step—just a tiny step forward.

Circumstances don't matter. A diamond thrown into the dirt does not cease to be a diamond. A heart filled with beauty and greatness is able to survive hunger, cold, betrayal and all kinds of losses, but remain itself, remain loving and striving for great ideals. Don't trust the circumstances. Believe in your dream.

Buddha described three types of laziness. The first is the laziness that we all know about. When we have no desire to do anything. The second is laziness, an incorrect feeling of oneself - laziness of thinking. “I will never do anything in life”, “I can’t do anything, it’s not worth trying.” The third is constant preoccupation with unimportant matters. We always have the opportunity to fill the vacuum of our time by keeping ourselves “busy.” But, usually, this is just a way to avoid meeting yourself.

No matter how beautiful your words are, you will be judged by your actions.

Don't dwell on the past, you won't be there anymore.

Let your body be in motion, your mind at rest, and your soul as transparent as a mountain lake.

Anyone who does not think positively is disgusted with life.

Happiness does not come to the house, where they whine day after day.

Sometimes, you just need to take a break and remind yourself who you are and who you want to be.

The main thing in life is to learn to turn all the twists of fate into zigzags of luck.

Don't let anything come out of you that can harm others. Don't let anything into you that can harm you.

You will get out of any difficult situation right away if you just remember that you live not with your body, but with your soul, and remember that you have something in you that is stronger than anything in the world. Lev Tolstoy

Statuses about life. Wise sayings.

Be honest even when alone with yourself. Honesty makes a person whole. When a person thinks, says and does the same thing, his strength triples.

The main thing in life is to find yourself, yours and yours.

In whom there is no truth, there is little good.

In our youth we look for a beautiful body, over the years we look for our soul mate. Vadim Zeland

All obstacles and difficulties are steps along which we grow upward.

Everything you pay attention to grows.

Everything that a person thinks he says about others, he actually says about himself.

When you enter the same water twice, do not forget what caused you to get out the first time.

You think this is just another day in your life. This is not just another day, it is the very only day that is given to you today.

Get out of the orbit of time and enter the orbit of love. Hugo Winkler

Even imperfections can be liked if the soul is manifested in them.

Even an intelligent person will become stupid if he does not improve himself.

Give us the strength to comfort and not to be comforted; to understand, and not to be understood; to love, not to be loved. For when we give, we receive. And by forgiving, we gain forgiveness for ourselves.

Moving along the road of life, you yourself create your universe.

Motto of the day I'm doing well, but it will be even better! D Juliana Wilson

There is nothing more precious than your soul in the world. Daniel Shellabarger

If there is aggression inside, life will “attack” you.

If you have the desire to fight inside, you will get rivals.

If you are offended inside, life will give you reasons to be offended even more.

If you have fear inside, life will scare you.

If you feel guilty inside, life will find a way to “punish” you.

If I feel bad, then this is not a reason to cause suffering to others.

If you ever want to find a person who can overcome any, even the most severe, adversity and make you happy when no one else can, just look in the mirror and say “Hello.”

If you don't like something, change it. If you don't have enough time, stop staring at the TV.

If you are looking for the Love of your life, stop. She will find you when you do only what you love. Open your head, hands and heart to something new. Don't be afraid to ask. And don't be afraid to answer. Don't be afraid to share your dream. Many opportunities only appear once. Life is about the people on your path and what you create with them. So start creating. Life is very fast. It's time to start.

If you are moving in the right direction, you will feel it in your heart.

If you light a candle for someone, it will light your path too.

If you want good, kind people to be around you, try to treat them attentively, kindly, politely - you will see that everyone will become better. Everything in life depends on you, believe me.

If a person wants, he will put a mountain on a mountain

Life is an eternal movement, constant renewal and development, from generation to generation, from infancy to wisdom, the movement of mind and consciousness.

Life sees you as you are from the inside.

Often a person who fails learns more about how to win than someone who immediately succeeds.

Anger is the most useless of emotions. Destroys the brain and harms the heart.

I hardly know any evil people. One day I met one whom I was afraid of and thought was evil; but when I looked at him more closely, he was only unhappy.

And all this with one goal to show you what you are, what you carry in your soul.

Every time you want to react in the same old way, ask yourself whether you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.

Everyone is a star and deserves the right to shine.

Whatever your problem, its cause lies in your thinking pattern, and any pattern can be changed.

When you don’t know what to do, act like a human being.

Any difficulty gives wisdom.

Any kind of relationship is like sand that you hold in your hand. Hold it freely, in an open hand, and the sand remains in it. The moment you squeeze your hand tightly, sand will begin to pour out through your fingers. This way you can retain some sand, but most of it will spill out. In relationships it’s exactly the same. Treat the other person and their freedom with care and respect, remaining close. But if you squeeze too tightly and with a claim to possess another person, the relationship will deteriorate and fall apart.

The measure of mental health is the willingness to find good in everything.

The world is full of clues, be attentive to the signs.

The only thing I don’t understand is how I, like all of us, manage to fill our lives with so much rubbish, doubts, regrets, a past that no longer exists and a future that has not yet happened, fears that will most likely never come true, if everything is so obviously simple.

Talking a lot and saying a lot are not the same thing.

We do not see everything as it is - we see everything as we are.

Think positively, if it doesn’t work out positively, it’s not a thought. Marilyn Monroe

Find quiet peace in your head and love in your heart. And no matter what happens around you, don't let anything change these two things.

Not all of ours lead to positive changes in our lives, but we certainly cannot achieve happiness without doing anything.

Don't let the noise of other people's opinions drown out your inner voice. Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
