“APPLY WITHIN

You once told me
You wanted to find
Yourself in the world -
And I told you to
First apply within,
To discover the world
within you.

You once told me
You wanted to save
The world from all its wars -
And I told you to
First save yourself
From the world,
And all the wars
You put yourself
Through.

“I want to learn how to speak to anyone at any time and make us both feel a little bit better, lighter, richer, with no commitments of ever meeting again. I want to learn how to stand wherever with whoever and still feel stable. I want to learn how to unlock the locks to our minds, my mind, so that when I hear opinions or views that don’t match up with mine, I can still listen and understand. I want to burn up lifeless habits of following maps and to-do lists, concentrated liquids to burn my mind and throat
and I want to go back to the way nature shaped me. I want to learn to go on well with whatever I have in my hands at the moment
in a natural state of mind,
certain like the sea.

I will find comfort in the rhythm of the sea.”
― Charlotte Eriksson

― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“My Dreams Have Footprints
They leave a trail and they linger on, they remind me of the future I believe to hold on, there is an elusive acquaintance with all life has in store and all we wish to live for. This subtlety brings future back and forth to our doorstep, with every step we make and every step we hold back. We are unable to comprehend the potential changes we make way for in life and potential setbacks we invite when we deny to move on. State of mind has a great impact on kind of dreams one see. They could be beautiful or they could be uneasy. Dreams get life only when we breathe them right. We breathe in the focus and breathe out a plan hence giving life to dream in front of us.

Dreams that wake us up in night are the ones that have most impact on our lives.”
― ― Aarti Bhardwaj
