Markku’s Quotes

“Life is a whirlwind of many opportunities. Choose to embrace all of them in deepest gratitude. Learn to forgive yourself and honour the heart that beats within you, as well as the head that rests on your shoulders. Learn how to believe in people again and not be judging or cynical to various beliefs.

We are all of one light on this one Earth, and loving humanity makes all the difference.”
― Michelle Cruz-Rosado
