"If life is an evolving process, then consistent change is the only resolving mechanism to problematic cases."

Change is the only solution to all of our problems. This is what it means: One can't simply lay back to old times and think the problem will not grow.
If you want to shrink something,
You must first allow it to expand.
If you want to get rid of something,
You must first allow it to flourish.
If you want to take something,
You must first allow to be given.
This is called the subtle perception of the way things are.

"Being genuine is more important than being right. You may say or do all the right things, but if it doesn't come from the heart, it means nothing. You may not always know the right things to say or do, but if your intent is genuine, then it means the world. When you work from a foundation of truth, you are free to make as many choices, free to make as many mistakes, free to take as much time as necessary to get it right."

For me its all about being true to myself in that it makes me what I am, and what I've always been deep down in my heart - genuine.
"You may avoid suffering and sorrow if you don't risk, but you simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live. The greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing and has nothing. Only a person who risks is free."
