Within ourselves is not very far and yet it is so far that one's whole life is not always long enough to get there.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The idea that there is a sharp boundary between our true inner selves and the outside world is pervasive but highly questionable. The boundaries of the self might well be more porous than we ordinarily think.
Many people know so little about what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves - and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves either.
Let's be honest with one another: almost everything is too long except life, and I know people who wouldn't even concur with that exception.
Life is so impermanent that it's not about somebody else or things around me, it's about knowing you are completely alone in this world and being content inside.
The way through the world is more difficult to find than the way beyond it.
Many people feel their outer self isn't the whole self.
There is nothing deep down inside us except what we have put there ourselves.
Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance.
Every life is narrow. Our only escape is not to run away, but to learn to love the people we are and the world in which we find ourselves.
I just think that the only way we come to ourselves is through each other.
