“Inevitable tragedies of life make us more conscious of human
nature, that we live not for material pleasures but for the maturity of the human soul. And this lesson is worth far more than any material wealth can offer us.” Marcus Farris |

quote
“Forgiveness is the only mechanism that allows humans to exist
in harmony with one another, and how we can truly, finally, move on from the past. Forgiveness is voluntarily rendering up our right to get even, and in that exchange, we experience peace.” Marcus Farris |

quote
“Our willingness to bear responsibility for the pain from the
first failure is where our power lies. We get to pick what to do with the pain. And maybe that’s the same thing as finding our way back to the garden, the place where nature, culture, the individual, and families exist in harmony.” Marcus Farris |

“The paradigm—the paradox—of Love integrates the potential
for pain because it allows the other the freedom to choose. That
leaves the door open for catastrophe, betrayal, and broken hearts.
That’s why true Love is scary and takes an immense amount of
courage because it lets the other decide for themselves. The hero
and heroine’s Love knows the risk and opts for the possibility—but
not the guarantee—of a happy ending.”
