Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.
Don't try to be brave when it is enough to be intelligent.
I am surprised how difficult for people is to say "I love you". They only say the three magic words when they are sure they will hear "I love you too" back. C'mon! Spread the energy of love without expecting anything! Cowards are incapable of expressing love; it is the prerogative of the brave
And one has to understand that braveness is not the absence of fear but rather the strength to keep on going forward despite the fear.
To heal our wounds, we need courage to face them.
...in all the woods and forests, God did not create a single leaf the same as any other... People go against nature because they lack the courage to be different.
An awareness of death encourages us to live more intensely.
Playing the part of a charitable soul was only for those who were afraid of taking a stand in life. It is always far easier to have faith in your own goodness than to confront others and fight for your rights. It is always easier to hear an insult and not retaliate than have the courage to fight back against someone stronger than yourself; we can always say we're not hurt by the stones others throw at us, and it's only at night - when we're alone and our wife or our husband or our school friend is asleep - that we can silently grieve over our own cowardice.
The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny.
A fall from the third floor hurts as much as a fall from the hundredth. If I have to fall, may it be from a high place.
