"Freedom isn’t ‘out there’ - it is right within you. Freedom isn’t about travelling to exotic destinations or achieving a glamorous lifestyle, it is about freedom of thought and meaningfully choosing the life you want to live rather than blaming others for your misery. Freedom is about living life with passion and direction rather than duty and obligation."

The Myths of Life and Other Choices We Have
“Some people do not have to search, for they find their niche early in life and rest there seemingly contented and resigned. At times, I envy them but usually I do not understand them… And seldom do they understand me. I am one of those searchers. There are, I believe, millions of us. We are not unhappy, but neither are we completely content. We continue to explore ourselves, hoping to understand. We like to walk along the beach; we are drawn to the ocean, taken by its power and unceasing motion, its mystery and unspeakable beauty. We like forests, mountains, deserts, hidden rivers, and lovely cities as well. Our sadness is as much a part of our lives as our laughter. We are ambitious only for life itself and for anything beautiful it can provide. Most of all, we want to love and be loved, to live in a relationship that will not impede our wanderings and prevent our search. We do not want to prove ourselves to others or compete for love. This passage is for wanderers, dreamers, and lovers who dare to ask of life everything which is good and beautiful.”

"If you can't be extreaordinary in your ordinary life, with your own neighbors, even the hairy-backed ones who take out their trash in their boxers, it's highly unlikely you'll amount to much- no matter what baby orphan you've kissed. So stop. Know the people on your path."

Go back to the purest place in your heart and bring it back... Have faith in yourself.”
