+++ " Friendship is like a glass ornament, once it is broken it can rarely be put back together exactly the same way".- Charles Kingsley

22 - 28 February: “We may proclaim that stress kills, but in reality it is not stress that kills; it is our reaction to it. Sometimes we react to the Light by finding various ways of shutting it out. But when we shut off the Light, we are in fact killing ourselves - so the idea is not to turn stress away, but to let it in.” ― Yehuda Berg

1-7 March: "Loneliness and solitude are two different things. When you are lonely, it is easy to delude yourself into believing that you are on the right path. Solitude is better for us, as it means being alone without feeling lonely. But eventually it is the best to find a person who will be your mirror. Remember only in another person’s heart can you truly see yourself and the presence of God within you" - Shams of Tabriz, The 40 Laws of Love


8 - 14 March: “I'm not crying because of you; you're not worth it. I'm crying because my delusion of who you were, was shattered by the truth of who you are.”― S. Maraboli

26 April - 2 May “Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.” ― Seneca
+ “When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready.

+ “Sex without love is as hollow and ridiculous as love without sex.” - H. S. Thompson

Şi femeia trebuie să aspire să găsească bărbatul care poate să fie cealaltă parte spirituală a sa şi s-o ajute să împlinească scopul creaţiei. Împreună, cei doi reprezintă o putere spirituală extraordinară, care le dăruieşte posibilitatea de a ajunge la realizări spirituale enorme, la care nimeni nu are posibilitatea de a ajunge la ele de unul singur." M.Laitman

24 - 30 May " Success without real friends (& true lovers), is like a flower in desert" - Io, Eu, Me !!!!!!!
