“I was full of a hot, powerful sadness and would have loved to burst into the comfort of tears, but tried hard not to, remembering something my Guru once said -- that you should never give yourself a chance to fall apart because, when you do, it becomes a tendency and it happens over and over again. You must practice staying strong, instead.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“In desperate love, we always invent the characters of our partners, demanding they be what we need of them, and then feeling devastated when they refuse to perform the role we created in the first place.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“There is a reason they call God a presence - because God is right here, right now. In the present is the only place to find Him, and now is the only time.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“يا خالق كل شئ ناقص .. كمالته معاك
يا شايل م الحاجات حتة .. بنترجاك
بحق المشهد الكامل
و اسمك اللى أنا عرفته
تسيب اللى يكفينا
و تكفينا بما سبته
ما تحوجناش
لجاى مجاش
و ترضينا بما جبته”
― مصطفى إبراهيم, المانيفستو
