The True Way is along a rope that is not spanned high in the air, but only just above the ground. It seems intended more to cause stumbling than to be walked upon. — Kafka, Aphorisms #literature #wisdom #meditation #spirituality #quotes #books image

We have to make #peace & reduce the suffering in ourselves first, because we represent the #world . Peace, #love & #happiness must always begin with ourselves. There is suffering, fear & anger inside of us & when we take care of it, we are taking care of the world. Thich Nhat Hanh image

'"Did the biblical Lazarus dream, locked in the clayey cave? Did he rememer his life in death – all of it, every moment? Did he remember the mornings... waking up with a sunbeam moving across his face like a smile? And once he was resurrected, did he remember being dead, or did he just enter another dream of another life? Did he have to disremember his previous life and start from scratch, like an immigrant?” — Aleksandar Hemon #Bosnia #immigration #jewish #fiction #literature #memory #books image
