141 " Awaken your heart! "
― Stefan Emunds , Holistic Self-realization
142 " Awaken my soul. "
143 " If a person seems wicked, do not cast him away. Awaken him with your words, elevate him with your deeds, repay his injury with your kindness. Do not cast him away; cast away his wickedness. "
― Lao Tzu
144 " At a distance, we see a need and ignore it. We judge it, condemn it, forget it. We don't think about it, because if we practice ignorance long enough, we don't notice the need anymore. It goes underground, and we're content with the surface of life as we know it - unwilling to break deeper ground. If all appears to be well on the outside, that is good enough for our consciences....If we are willing to dig deep, to find Calcutta in our own backyards, we will find the poor. But we will also find God. And He may just open our eyes, so that we can see the need and not soon forget. So that we can hear their cries and not grow deaf. So that we can smell the stench of human need and awaken our hearts to compassion. "
― Jeff Goins , Wrecked: When a Broken World Slams into your Comfortable Life
145 " If we love unconditionally just like our Creator, we will awaken of the goodness in souls. "
