My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.
There are words which sever hearts more than sharp swords; there are words the point of which sting the heart through the course of a whole life.
In an evolutionary context, development has no end. That means we can always develop more, further, higher and deeper. In Traditional Enlightenment, it’s possible to become ‘fully enlightened’. In Buddhism, they call it ‘cessation’ or ‘the end of becoming’. Evolutionary Enlightenment is about infinite becoming for eternity.
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
