You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are. ~ Eckhart Tolle
Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. ~ Osho
The most difficult times for many of us are the ones we give ourselves. -~ Pema Chödrön
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. ~ Carl Jung
