In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order. - Carl Jung

There are no perfect people in this world, ... only perfect intentions.

Don't settle for less because you deserve better than that...

Don't tell people how to cope. Listen. Let them talk about how they're coping.

@8steplisten I cannot agree with this enough! So true!

@cuddlyHugs123 Thanks!

To listen is to put someone else's speaking, thinking, feeling needs first.

Don't interrupt.

Don't advise.

Don't judge.

Listening is the answer to the universal human need to be heard.

@8steplisten - You're right, dear 8steplisten. :-) I agree with you, it's the best we can do to make our counterparts feel warmer, feel as if they are not alone. You see, so many of us do not listen to care for and understand, we listen to reply. Honestly, I used to do this too - even during the beginning of the previous year - but now, as I started to realize these things and as I am progressing on my journey, I don't do this at all. It has, eventually, lead to a great transformation!

Every story needs a listener.

Try to accept and love yourself in the present moment instead of waiting to love yourself after you lose weight, after you get that new job, after you start that new relationship. Start today and stop putting off loving yourself.

Speaking is good, and silence is good, but it's best to know when to do which.

"Come, come, whoever you are, wonderer, worshipper, lover of leaving - it doesn't matter. Ours is not a caravan of despair. Come, even if you have broken your vow a hundred times. Come, come again, come."

When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.

-Alexander Graham Bell

@CaringJoy I absolutely love this!

@Babiilocks I'm so glad you love that quote because it had the same effect on me. Let's keep pressing on and I hope you feel better. Have a wonderful day!

Thermodynamic miracles... events with odds against so astronomical they're effectively impossible, like oxygen spontaneously becoming gold. I long to observe such a thing.
And yet, in each human coupling, a thousand million sperm vie for a single egg. Multiply those odds by countless generations, against the odds of your ancestors being alive; meeting; siring this precise son; that exact daughter... Until your mother loves a man she has every reason to hate, and of that union, of the thousand million children competing for fertilization, it was you, only you, that emerged. To distill so specific a form from that chaos of improbability, like turning air to gold... that is the crowning unlikelihood. The thermodynamic miracle.

But...if me, my birth, if that's a thermodynamic miracle... I mean, you could say that about anybody in the world!.

Yes. Anybody in the world. ..But the world is so full of people, so crowded with these miracles that they become commonplace and we forget... I forget. We gaze continually at the world and it grows dull in our perceptions. Yet seen from the another's vantage point. As if new, it may still take our breath away. Come...dry your eyes. For you are life, rarer than a quark and unpredictable beyond the dreams of Heisenberg; the clay in which the forces that shape all things leave their fingerprints most clearly. Dry your eyes... and let's go home.

― Alan Moore, Watchmen
