Life is busy. There are daily obligations that have to be met. Take time to think about how precious and special human life is - you only get one such life. Every wasted minute is lost. You can’t get it back.
You say: “He lost his life” or “my life”, as if life were something that you can possess or lose. The truth is: you don’t have a life, you are life. The One Life, the one consciousness that pervades the entire universe and takes temporary form to experience itself as a stone or blade of grass, as an animal, a person, a star or a galaxy.
You’re going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it’s always their actions you should judge them by.
Life without freedom is like a body without a soul, and freedom without thought is like a confused spirit.
