“Don't aim at success. The more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long-run—in the long-run, I say!—success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it”

“Did you once have a grand plan which has become obsolete and no longer serves you? If there are areas in your life which must change to help you create better results, a redesign may be in order. Consider going back to the ‘drawing board’ to deconstruct what isn’t working and start anew.”

“The core belief in having to be strong enough, characteristic of many people who develop chronic illness, is a defence. The child who perceives that her parents cannot support her emotionally had better develop an attitude of “I can handle everything myself.” Otherwise, she may feel rejected. One way not to feel rejected is never to ask for help, never to admit “weakness” — to believe that I am strong enough to withstand all my vicissitudes alone.”

“One cannot get much more vulnerable than to expose oneself psychologically. To share oneself with another and then be misunderstood or rejected is, for many, a risk not worth taking. As a result, this is the rarest of intimacies and the reason so many of us are reluctant to share even with loved ones our deepest concerns and insecurities about ourselves. Yet there is no closeness that can surpass the sense of feeling known and still being liked, accepted, welcomed, invited to exist.”

“Do I live my life according to my own deepest truths, or in order to fulfill someone else’s expectations? How much of what I have believed and done is actually my own and how much has been in service to a self-image I originally created in the belief it was necessary to please my parents?”

“الفشل مُعدٍ تماما كالنجاح، والسعادة مُعدية تماما كالكآبة، وحتى الجمال مُعدٍ. إن رجلا جميلا وأنيقا ينقل لك عدواه ويُجبرك على أن تضاهيه أناقة حتى لا تخسرينه، وألا تهملي مظهرك حتى لا تُبدين غير أهل له. لذا عليك قبل أن تُقبلي على حب رجل أن تدركي العيوب التي ستنتقل إليك بعد الآن بحكم العدوى.”

“هى شجرة يستظلّ بها , ولا يريد ان يُنبّهها الى ثمارها فيقطفها سواة.
يريد لة وحدة مرحها و صباها . ذكاء انوثتها, براءتها , اندهاشها البكر بكلّ ما تراة معة لاول مرة
يحب جرأتها فى الدفاع عن قناعاتها , وهزيمتها حين يجردها من قراراتها. يحب نقاءها, ويشتهى منذ الآن افسادها. هو فقط يؤجل آوان امتلاكها”

“انتهى زمن الانتظار الجميل لساعي البريد.
صندوق البريد الذي نحتفظ بمفتاحه سراً، ونسابق الأهل لفتحه.
الرسائل التي نحفظها عن ظهر قلب ونخفيها لسنوات. الأعذار التي نجدها لحبيب تأخرت رسالته أو لم يكتب إلينا.
اليوم ندري أن رسالته لم تته.. ولاهي تأخرت.
بإمكاننا أن نحسب بالدقائق وقت الصمت المهين بين رسالة.. والرد عليها!”

“لا أدري كيف مات غضبي.
الآن فقط اكتشفت أنه مات. وأنني فقدت ذلك الحريق الجميل، الذي كثيرا ما أشعل قلمي
وأشعلني في وجه الآخرين.
ألا تكون لك قدرة على الغضب، أو رغبة فيه، يعني أنك غادرت شبابك لا غير. أو أن تلك
الحرائق غادرتك خيبة بعد أخرى. حتى أنك لم تعد تملك الحماس للجدل في شيء. ولا حتى في
قضايا كانت تبدو لك في السابق من الأهمية، أو من المثالية، بحيث كنت مستعدا للموت من
أجلها!”
