I have had a very powerful, meaningful week. I feel like I have evolved. While I'm still processing everything, I would like to share something sitting in my heart right now.
Love, as I see it, is the ultimate religion. Love yourself, love your environment, love humanity. It's easy to fall into fear. But don't be afraid - be strong, be brave and give yourself into love - seek for it, and all of your fears will become meaningless.
To love is also to be exposed - exposed to pain. I'm not a fool; I know that. But pain is what makes us human, what brings us all together. Imperfection is something we all have to accept in order to find peace in our lives. Pain is beautiful. Scars are beautiful. They are necessary.
It might sound strange, but trust me here. There is no love without pain, and no joy without sadness. Whenever you are in pain, you are going to deal with it. Don't fear it. Don't fear pain. Don't fear love. Embrace it. It's not easy, I know. But I believe in you people. You got it.
Love you all.
Listen to this beautiful song of Riverside; listen carefully to those lyrics. It's so powerful.
