1 " But if you do not learn how to love, everywhere you go you are going to suffer. "
― Eknath Easwaran , Learning to Love (Easwaran Inspirations, #4)
2 " when you put the other person’s welfare foremost every day, no matter how strong the opposing tide inside, you discover after a while that you can love a little more today than you did yesterday. "
3 " Whatever the flavor of our anger – irritability, rage, stubbornness, belligerence, or sullen silence – it can all be transformed into compassion and understanding. Those we live with will certainly benefit from that, and so will we. "
4 " Even with the best of conscious intentions, we may provoke a nasty clash. But if we can support the other person and express our disapproval tenderly, with respect, it will help him or her to see more clearly. "
5 " Love that is physical, death will destroy. But love that is spiritual, death can never destroy. "
6 " Almost every estrangement can be mended if one person involved is willing and able to forgive. "
7 " Past and future, those twin burdens, fall away, and here, in the present moment, we are free to love unconditionally, wholly. "
8 " The Lord is present in every one of us, and when we love those around us, we are loving him. "
9 " All that you used to avoid will turn itself to great sweetness and exceeding joy. "
