“Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.” {Carl Jung}
Today many people are afraid to look into their own heart. Though we should do that more often. Looking at ourselves we also should reflect how we behave in this universe and how we want to relate to others.
Hermann Hesse said
“Within you there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat any time.” {Hermann Hesse}
Not enough people do take time to retreat and to take some time to look at things, wondering how everything is going good or bad and why certain things evolve a certain way.

“Try to learn to breathe deeply, really taste your food when you eat, and when you sleep, really sleep.

You will dead soon enough.” {Ernest Hemingway}

“Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We only have this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand and melting like a snowflake.” {Sir Francis Bacon}
Therefore let us take every moment of the day to make the best out of it.
“You have a treasure within you that is infinitely greater than anything the world can offer.” {Eckhart Tolle}
“The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they bloom like flowers.” {Thich Nhat Hanh}
