Quote by Seneca

“Ninguna cosa se ha de evitar tanto en el hacer bien, como la soberbia. ¿De que sirve en los beneficios la arrogancia del rostro? ¿De qué la hinchazón de las palabras?. La misma buena obra es la que te engrandece; quítale la vana alabanza, que cuando callemos nosotros hablarán los beneficios. El dado con soberbia no sólo no es agradable, sino aborrecible.”

“Yes! Everyone is right. Since everything exists in perspective, our view depends on our version of reality. The negative and positive exist in the same space. I think that we are created in opportunity. We give each other opportunities. Our opportunity may not be limitless, but we never ran out. People give us the opportunity to love. Oxygen gives us the opportunity to breathe. Water gives us the opportunity to swim. Our home was an opportunity provided by trees. We are surrounded by opportunity; but if the world wanted to have opportunity in one tree then it would be limited. We are limited by looking for opportunity in 1. As long as the 1% of anything holds the opportunity, then opportunity will be limited. I learned to find opportunity within myself and attract opportunity from others.”
