\ud83d\udcad\u00a0The quote from Thomas Merton<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image. If in loving them we do not love what they are, but only their potential likeness to ourselves, then we do not love them: we only love the reflection of ourselves we find in them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcad\u00a0The path to serenity from the Tao Te Ching<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFill your bowl to the brim<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and it will spill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep sharpening your knife<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and it will blunt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chase after money and security<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and your heart will never unclench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Care about people's approval<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and you will be their prisoner. Do your work, then step back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only path to serenity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
