Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than happiness ever can; and common sufferings are far stronger links than common joys.
Everyone loses touch with their aspiration, and we need the heart to return to what we really care about. All of this is based on developing greater lovingkindness and compassion.
Our own sorrows seem heavy enough, even when lifted by certain long-term joys. But watching others hurt is the breaker of most any heart.
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
In life, when stuff happens the instinct is to close off your heart. By leaving your heart open, it leaves room for someone else to come in.
If you open your heart, then the object of your love becomes so precious because you are so open. And that philosophy, that caring, spreads.
A heart that hurts is a heart that works.
If you go deeper and deeper into your own heart, you'll be living in a world with less fear, isolation and loneliness.
Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.
