Live in the present. Let the memory of the past and the wind of the future grace you but do not let it dictate how you live. When we start creating strict rules for our living and militaristicaly adhere to them, we begin to lose the beauty of living in the present–we begin to fear change. we descend into stagnation.
If you are to fear, fear stagnation! For life is flow. Life is every changing.
Admiration is the furthest thing from understanding – Aizen, Bleach
When you are so swept up in an emotion such as Admiration you often neglect to question anything being said or done by the object of your attention. You lose your ability to think or see critically, if at all, reality. That is not to say one should not admire another, but never to such a degree that it hinders your ability to think clearly and for yourself.
