“Do not demand perfection of yourself. Only mindfulness. When the way seems unclear, or difficult, you must remember. And sometimes you must remember to remember.”

“whether it is the innocent or the guilty you kill, the act of destruction degrades the soul. And buries all hope.”
― The Way: A Girl Who Dared to Rise

So it is with all life.”
