Different from romantic or filial love, it’s its own unique love story. When we know that we matter to others, it gives us a significance.

I know it can be hard to believe in the middle of a fight, but the only person who cares about your intentions is you. Most people do not intend to hurt their partners, but they do anyway. The first step in repairing the pain you’ve caused is to fully take responsibility. Justifications are not necessary and will often make things worse.

“The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.”

Today's reminder.

I have a friend who is an independent thinker, a person who likes to set her own goals. She likes to know her varied options and tends to choose the one that is most distinctive or nonconformist, displaying her individuality. When she can be herself, and not simply fit in or try to please people, she is happy.

My friend attended a retreat some years ago, and right at the end of that intensive period of meditation she said to me, “If you really want to be a rebel, practice kindness.” I loved that, and the extrapolations one could make from it: If you want to live on your own terms, breaking out from external definitions of who you are, practice love. To be free, to be bold, to be different, be kind.
