Jeanette LeBlanc
“Out there somewhere there is a love who will never dream of calling you too much. Who speaks, like you, in poetry and candlewax and stardust. Who runs outside on stormy nights to howl at the moon. Who collects bones and sings incantation and talks to the ancestors. And that lover, when you find him or her, will see you and know you – just as you are and just as you should be.

And they will say yes. Yes, you. I will go there with you. I have been waiting for this.”
Jeanette LeBlanc

“Yes no yes no yes no?
Red blue?
Yes red, no blue?
No red, yes no?
In out, up down?
Do don't, can can't?
Choices sit on the shelf life
New shoes in a shoe shop.
If the in crowd are squeezing into a must-have shoe
And the one pair left are too tiny for you
Don't feel compelled into choosing them
If you're really a size 9, buy that size.
While everyone else
Hobbles round with sore feet
Your choices should feel comfortable
Or they aren't your choices at all.
Why limp when you can sprint?”
David Baird, Fiesta of Happiness: Be True to Yourself

Jodi Picoult
“In the space between yes and no, there is a lifetime. It’s the difference between the path you walk and one you leave behind; it’s the gap between who you thought you could be and who you really are; it’s the legroom for the lies you will tell yourself in the future.”
Jodi Picoult, Change of Heart

Tao Lin
“Death is the end of the fear of death. [...] To avoid it we must not stop fearing it and so life is fear. Death is time because time allows us to move toward death which we fear at all times when alive. We move around and that is fear. Movement through space requires time. Without death there is no movement through space and no life and no fear. To be aware of death is to be alive is to fear is to move around in space and time toward death.”
Tao Lin, Bed

Enock Maregesi
“Sina jinsi. Nguzo ya maisha yangu ni historia ya maisha yangu. Historia ya maisha yangu ni urithi wa watu waliojifunza kusema hapana kwa ndiyo nyingi – waliojitolea vitu vingi katika maisha yao kunifikisha hapa nilipo leo – walionifundisha falsafa ya kushindwa si hiari. Siri ya mafanikio yangu ni kujitahidi kwa kadiri ya uwezo wangu wote; au 'pushing the envelope' kwa lugha ya kigeni.”
Enock Maregesi

Swami Dhyan Giten
“To say yes wholeheartedly is to be religious. It has nothing to do with a belief in a god. All that you need is wholehearted yes. All that you need is a total yes, so that not even a small fragment of no remains in the heart.
When you say a total yes, you become a light unto yourself. And this light starts to guide you on your path. Then no outer guide is needed.
When you say a total yes, you don't hold back. The total yes means to flow with life and to be available to life. The total yes means that non-resistance is all that is needed. We have to cooperate with life.
Our mind is very afraid of saying yes. The mind naturally resists saying yes. The mind lives through saying no. We have lived
with saying no for so many lives that we have forgotten the possibility of saying yes.
We have forgotten the possibility of saying yes to ourselves, to say to others and to say yes to all that is.”
Swami Dhyan Giten, The Way of the Heart

Ali Hazelwood
“Olha, você não precisa dizer que vai se casar comigo. Está passando por muitas mudanças, e eu também vou ter que mudar. O anel pode significar só que… Pode ser só uma lembrança de que eu te amo. De que eu quero me casar com você. Que sou um sim constante e infinito. E que, quando você estiver pronta, em dois anos ou em vinte, vou estar aqui.”
Ali Hazelwood, Problematic Summer Romance

Swami Dhyan Giten
“Saying yes to existence means surrendering to God. It means not living the isolated life of the ego. It means becoming one with the whole. It contains in essence the whole of religion.
Meditation is saying yes to existence. And then there is no fear. When you drop your ego all fear disappears. Then whatsoever God wills you do. You are no more responsible, because you are not. Then it is all up to God.
With this trust a great revolution in your life
happens. You don't exist as a separate entity
anymore. It is like a drop slipping into the ocean.
It means losing its limited definition, it means losing its identity, but it means to gain tremendously. It becomes the ocean. So the loss is not much, but the gain is infinite.”
Swami Dhyan Giten, The Way of the Heart
