The Zahir
“All you have to do is to pay attention; lessons always arrive when you are ready, and if you can read the signs, you will learn everything you need to know in order to take the next step.”
“We humans have two great problems: the first is knowing when to begin, the second is knowing when to stop.”
“I learned something recently: out true friends are those who are with us when the good things happen. They cheer us on and are pleased by our triumphs. False friends only appear at difficult times, with their sad, supportive faces, when, in fact, our suffering is serving to console them for their miserable lives.”
“Love is an untamed force. When we try to control it, it destroy us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused.”
“They are the prison of the personal history. Everyone believes that the main aim in life is to follow a plan. They never ask if that plan is theirs or if it was created by another person. The accumulate experiences, memories, things, other people’s ideas, and it is more than they can possibly cope with. And that is why they forget their dreams.“
“In order to live fully, it is necessary to be in constant movement; only then can each day be different from the last.”
“His companions say: ‘He’s lucky!’ But he knows that ‘luck’ is knowing to look around him and to see where his friends are, because it was through their words that the angels were able to make themselves heard.”
“… we need to forget who we think we are in order to become who we really are.”
“… suffering occurs when we want other people to love us in the way we imagine we want to be loved, and not in the way that love should manifest itself – free and untrammeled…”
COHELO’S – Q&A :
“The zahir can be a person, a job, an objective, but the attempt to possess or achieve it never brings us happiness; instead, it becomes an unhealthy obsession.”
“It’s one thing to follow our dreams and to believe in the signs that guide us on our way. Then we have a goal to aim at, but we also enjoy the journey. With a zahir we don’t get that same feeling of joy with every step we take, only the stubborn desire to get what we believe to be necessary for us to live.”
” With our music make the choice, to give the voiceless back a voice “
Glenn Bassett, a.k.a. Amnesty Busker, shares his latest composition “Like Water on Stone” with Amnesty members, buskers, and music lovers
The action of a single drop,
May have no impact on the rock,
But the steady stream flowing day after day,
Wears even the hardest stone away
I met a million souls like me,
Who are more free to play and sing,
And with our music make the choice,
To give the voiceless back a voice.
Well heres to us, though were unknown.
May we be like water on stone.
The Beginning of the End
Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter
