The aim of education should be to teach us rather how to think, than what to think — rather to improve our minds, so as to enable us to think for ourselves, than to load the memory with thoughts of other men.

books
Reading, writing, books, words, fiction. Someone once said “every man who knows how to read has the power to magnify himself, to multiply the ways in which he exists, to make his life full, significant and interesting”. It’s true; nowadays, I only exist on…
Summer days

We have the need to be accepted and to be loved by others, but we cannot accept and love ourselves. The more self-love we have, the less we will experience self-abuse. Self-abuse comes from self-rejection, and self-rejection comes from having an image of what it means to be perfect and never measuring up to that ideal. Our image of perfection is the reason we reject ourselves the way we are, and why we don’t accept others the way they are.”
