Time Is Just An Illusion.

The Universe Is One Being. Everything And Everyone Is Interconnected Through An Invisible Web Of Stories. Whether We Are Aware Of It Or Not, We Are All In A Silent Conversation. Do No Harm. Practise Compassion. And Do Not Gossip Behind Anyone's Back - Not Even Seemingly Innocent Remark! The Words That Come Out Of Our Mouth Do Not Vanish But Are Perpetually Stored In Infinite Space, And They Will Come Back To Us In Due Time. One Man's Pain Will Hurt Us All. One Man's Joy Will Make Everyone Smile.

I Am Very Worried About This Concentration Of Power, And It's Not Only Because Of Erdogan. We Have The Ballot Box, But We Don't Have The Culture Of Democracy.

One Thing That Has Helped Me Personally In The Past Was To Stop Interfering With The People Around Me And Getting Frustrated When I Couldn’t Change Them. Instead Of Intrusion And Passivity, May I Suggest Submission? Some People Make The Mistake Of Confusing “submission” With “weakness”, Whereas It Is Anything But. Submission Is A Form Of Peaceful Acceptance Of The Terms Of The Universe, Including The Things We Are Currently Unable To Change Or Comprehend.

Patience Does Not Mean To Passively Endure. It Means To Be Farsighted Enough To Trust The End Result Of A Process. What Does Patience Mean? It Means To Look At The Thorn And See The Rose, To Look At The Night And See The Dawn. Impatience Means To Be So Shortsighted As To Not Be Able To See The Outcome. The Lovers Of God Never Run Out Of Patience, For They Know That Time Is Needed For The Crescent Moon To Become Full.
