“look at other people and ask yourself if you are really seeing them or just your thoughts about them.... Without knowing it, we are coloring everything, putting our spin on it all.”

“For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?

And what is it to cease breathing but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?

Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.

And when you have reached the mountaintop,then you shall begin to climb.

And when the earth shal claim your limbs,then shall you truly dance.”
― Khalil Gibran, The Prophet

“One practical way to do this is to look at other people and ask yourself if you are really seeing them or just your thoughts about them.”
