“We lose ourselves in things we love. We find ourselves there, too.”

Richard Wagamese
“I understood then that when you miss a thing it leaves a hole that only the thing you miss can fill.”
Richard Wagamese, Indian Horse

Viktor E. Frankl
“The meaning of life is to give life meaning.”
Viktor E. Frankl

Richard Wagamese
“Sometimes people just need to talk. They need to be heard. they need the validation of my time, my silence, my unspoken compassion. They don't need advice, sympathy or counselling. They need to hear the sound of their own voices speaking their own truths, articulating their own feelings, as those may be at a particular moment. Then, when they're finished, they simply need a nod of the head, a pat on the shoulder or a hug. I'm learning that sometimes silence really is golden, and that sometimes "Fuck, eh?" is as spiritual a thing as needs to be said.”
Richard Wagamese, Embers: One Ojibway's Meditations

Viktor E. Frankl
“Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation. You cannot control what happens to you in life, but you can always control what you will feel and do about what happens to you.”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning
