La muerte no es la mayor pérdida en esta vida. La pérdida más grande es todo aquello que va muriendo dentro de nosotros mientras vivimos.

La vita dovrebbe essere una celebrazione, indipendentemente da ciò che essa porta. Se arriva la gioia, si celebra; se arriva la sventura, si celebra; se arriva l'amore, si celebra; se arriva la morte, si celebra. Qualunque cosa accada, si dovrebbe celebrare, perché è l'unico modo per raggiungere uno stato mentale equilibrato, necessario per superare la dualità della vita. Se la vostra celebrazione è condizionata, sarete sempre schiavi delle situazioni in cui vi trovate. Jihad Bakkali https://t.me/DivineSoulsPortal art _by_moonlightcreationsfr ************************* Life should be a celebration, no matter what it brings. If joy comes, you celebrate; if misfortune comes, you celebrate; if love comes, you celebrate; if death comes, you celebrate. No matter what happens, you should celebrate, because it's the only way to achieve a balanced state of mind, necessary to overcome the duality of life. If your celebration is conditional, you will always be a slave to the situations you find yourself in. Jihad Bakkali https://t.me/DivineSoulsPortal art _by_moonlightcreationsfr

“Così Mago Merlino disse: Arriverà un giorno, in cui capirai che tutto l'universo vive dentro di te. Allora sarai un mago. Come mago, tu non vivi nel mondo; è il mondo che vive dentro di te. Quando questo accadrà inizierai a manifestare invece di attrarre. E capirai che non ti manca nulla, solo non hai ancora visto dentro di te ciò che stai tanto cercando... " [La spada nella roccia] T.H.White art _by_universalom_ *********************** “So Merlin the Wizard said: There will come a day when you will understand that the entire universe lives within you. Then you will be a wizard. As a wizard, you do not live in the world; the world lives within you. When this happens, you will begin to manifest instead of attract. And you will understand that you lack nothing, you just have not yet seen within yourself what you are so seeking...” [The Sword in the Stone] T.H.White art _by_universalom_

Copley House (also known as the Forest House with Tower),

A breathtaking masterpiece of organic modernism designed and hand-built by architect and artist Nancy Copley.

Located on a 50-acre forested plot in Accord, New York (at the foothills of the Catskills), this geometric residence is famous for being a 37-year-long labor of love.

Nancy Copley purchased the site and conceived the design in 1972, spending decades personally physically executing its construction.
