“We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.”

“Don’t react against a bad situation; Merge with that situation instead. And the solution will arise from the challenge. Because surrendering yourself doesn’t mean giving up, it means acting with responsibility.”
—Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth (via mijitatralala)
“You all know the saying which is very true: What you resist persists. And I am sure many of you have already found that out in your life. And then suddenly when you let go of resistance you let go of an attachment to something: I need this to happen in order to be happy; I do not want what is, I want something else. To be okay with what is, which is the simplicity of this moment, is the beginning of true change.”
—Eckhart Tolle
