Quote by David Scott

“Sweaty, bruised and grazed, we stood by the open gateway of a half-acre paddock and watched the truck taking the colt to his destiny. I don’t recall what kind of day it was, only the miserable feeling of having failed after trying our best. We didn’t know it then, but it was to be a recurring theme in the not-too-distant future.”

“Wenn ich mir so ansehe, wie du dich laufend veränderst, muss ich immer wieder feststellen, wie sehr der Mensch einem Gefäß ähnelt, wirklich. Ein Gefäß, dessen Inhalt jederzeit veränderlich, austauschbar ist. So ist auch der Mensch in der Lage, ein anderer zu werden. Das Prinzip ist gleich: Du gehst deinen Weg, und die Fügungen des Schicksals sorgen zwar dafür, dass du immer wieder Neues hineintust, aber ganz unten , auf dem Boden unter diesem sich ständig wandelnden Inhalt, bleibt das Gefäß letztlich doch dasselbe, da lieft die "Sakumi", die du immer bleiben wirst, das, was man vielleicht "Seele" nennen könnte, und nur das allein ändern sich erstaunlicherweise nicht, es bleibt immer da , nimm alles auf, versucht sich zu freuen. Wenn ich daran denke, dass das immer dasein wird, bis du stirbst, bin ich so gerührt, irgendwie so schmerzlich berührt, dass ich nicht mehr ein noch aus weiß!”

“It is a mistake to think that we need a certain type of relationship to be happy. If we crave a relationship when we are single, we will bring that wanting into any relationship with the consequent problems. To feel that destiny will provide us with what best meets our deepest needs is to be able to enter into any stage of life with confidence and a sense of completeness, not a sense of lack which someone else is supposed to fill.”

“There is a small group of people who are our special ones: our partners, children, and other loved ones. They are our dearest ones. Somehow, they belong to us and us to them. We didn’t really choose them but nor did we not choose them. Our beloved children did not just randomly come to us. Long before their material arrival, they were a part of us, as we have always been a part of them. Partners and other dearly loved ones, likewise, did not just randomly appear in our life as if, just as easily, we could have missed them or replaced them with some other 'random'. No, they are the ones that were marked in our heart already. We recognize them as belonging to us. This belonging gives love a certain stability, permanence, and resilience.”

“We all have our individual destinies to fulfil. Each one must play their part. We will then be happy and that is all we need. We can turn everything we do into a prayer. Instead of feeling inadequate or unlucky, we can feel a part of the grand energetic flow of the Creation which encompasses everyone. We belong to it and benefit richly from that belonging. The flowering of our own potential will be greatly enhanced. All life forms value their own existence and the reaching of their own potential. Being aware of this helps us to move from the natural egocentricity that accompanies being human. Instead of constantly seeing our own life and needs as being of primary importance, we soften that view with an appreciation of the life-value and needs of everyone and everything. Respect and goodwill replace comparison and ill-will.”
