“It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (The Complete Prose Works Of Ralph Waldo Emerson)
“Wherever you are, be there totally. If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or accept it totally.”
—Eckhart Tolle (via lazyyogi)
“
Let yourself be. Let yourself enjoy.
Let yourself see and participate, know and feel, listen and
understand. Let yourself live the brilliant richness that
shines through even the smallest details of this very time
and place.
Let go of the worries, the fears, the grievances,
insecurities and inhibitions. Simply and lovingly live the
beauty of this day.
Without judgment as to whether it is difficult or easy,
popular or unpopular, do what you know is right, and what
you feel is right for you. Let yourself be curious, in awe,
inspired and in love with the ineffable reality of
existence.
