A. Dumas said, “Not a day without a line!” I’m certainly not Dumas. Not at all. But sometimes I get the feeling that I just have to write. That if I don’t write, something will go wrong. And the right thing won’t happen.

Who knows – maybe all of this is given to us to prepare us for something even more beautiful, right here, in this very life. Or perhaps they, up there, are sitting, watching us, and laughing at how we dream of the moment when everything will finally come together, when everything will come true, when there will be no barriers, no cruel ironies of fate.

I feel like a visitor in an amusement park, where the most peaceful ride is the roller coaster, and the rules are such that the end of one attraction is the beginning of another. I can hardly keep up with everything that’s happening to me.

We strongly concentrate our understanding of love as a process directed towards one person, whereas love is a state that is available to us at any moment because life is love. We are not open enough if we allow ourselves to squeeze out a tiny bit of love for one person when we can open up to the whole world.

Once, a human naively assumed himself to be nothing less than the king of nature. No, enough of that! King! Let him be released into the open field, face to face with the king of beasts, and I believe, to our mutual regret, there will be no boundaries because Mr. Lion will devour the imaginary crown-bearer and leave no bones, the scoundrel.
