And people stayed home...
Kathleen O’Meara (1839–1888)

​

and people stayed home
and read books and listened
and rested and exercised
and made art and played
and learned new ways of being
and stopped
and listened deeper
someone meditated
someone prayed
someone danced
someone met their shadow
and people began to think differently
and people healed
and in the absence of people who lived in ignorant ways,
dangerous meaningless and heartless
even the earth began to heal
and when the danger ended
and people found each other
grieved for the dead people
and they made new choices
and dreamed of new visions
and created new ways of life
and healed the earth completely
just as they were healed themselves

 

Thucydides' History of Peloponnesian war... plague doesn't change human nature, it just amplifies. Someone who was crazy before will be crazier, someone who was cautious, kind, only be more so.

 

“Experience life in all possible ways --
good-bad, bitter-sweet, dark-light,
summer-winter. Experience all the dualities.
Don't be afraid of experience, because
the more experience you have, the more
mature you become.”
― Osho

 

“I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.”
– Winston Churchill

 

”All life is interrelated, and we are all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”
- Martin Luther King Jr.

 

“Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony.”

~ Thomas Merton

 

"When you see excessive volatility, be careful; when you do not see excessive volatility be doubly careful."
- Louis L'Amour ( as paraphrased by Victor Niederhoffer in his book "The Education Of A Speculator" page 234

 

" I am who I am and that's who I am"
- Nikolai Gogol

 

"Love is the nourishment for the soul. Just as food is to the body, so love is to the soul. Without food the body is weak, without love the soul is weak. And no state, no church and no vested interest has ever wanted people to have strong souls, because a person with spiritual energy is bound to be rebellious.

Love makes you rebellious, revolutionary. Love gives you wings to soar high. Love gives you insight into things, so that nobody can deceive you, exploit you, oppress you. And the priests and the politicians survive only on your blood – they survive only on exploitation. They are parasites, all the priests and all the politicians.

To make you spiritually weak they have found a sure method, one hundred percent guaranteed, and that is to teach you not to love yourself – because if a man cannot love himself he cannot love anybody else either. "

- Osho
