When I am no more an issue, now I am willing to dig into the whole existence and see what it is all about."

If stars can go on dancing and flowers can go on blooming and birds can go on singing, why not you? You also belong to this universe. You are part of it. In fact, you are the most valuable part of it, the greatest flowering is going to happen in you-the flowering of consciousness, the golden flower of being."
18
