Krishnamurti, On Relationship
“He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.” Gabriel Garcia Marquez
“…I have this strange feeling that I’m not myself anymore. It’s hard to put into words, but I guess it’s like I was fast asleep, and someone came, disassembled me, and hurriedly put me back together again. That sort of feeling.” – Haruki Murakami
Paradigm Shift
Sometimes it happens so fast it just catches you off guard. You are one person for such a long time, days, weeks, months, and then you wake up one day, you meet someone new, you read a book, you see someone do something, and it strikes a cord inside you, the world shifts, and bam! Yo’re forever changed.
