Always say “yes” to the present moment.
What could be more futile,
more insane,
than to create inner resistance to what already is?
What could be more insane than to oppose life itself,
which is now and always now?
Surrender to what is.
Say “yes” to life —
and see how life suddenly starts working for you
rather than against you.

(via Eckhart Tolle)

“Trying to possess love makes it go away.
Trying to possess somebody makes them go away…
Try to look at the sun. You go blind, right?
Now that doesn’t mean you don’t have to work on it.
Love is a flower and you have to water it.”

John Lennon.

VIOLENCE
BEGETS
VIOLENCE

"Violence begets violence, it's a universal law. All right, some will say situations vary from place to place and the situation will sometimes justify the use of violence, but that's a compromise and I say peace cannot be compromised..."

John Lennon.

"Our life is our art."

John Lennon.

"We live in a beautiful universe, we are thankful everyday for the plentifulness of our life. This is not an euphemism. We understand that we, the city, the country, the earth are facing very hard times, and there is panic in the air. Still the sun is shining and we are here together, and there is love between us..."

John Lennon.
