“2. “Salió de la habitación dispuesta a disfrutar de la velada con Emma. Se fijó en el número ocho de la puerta; lo dibujó con sus dedos. Vio que el símbolo infinito estaba implícito en el recorrido. Repitió el gesto. Años más tarde formaría parte de su ritual.” 3. “Entornó la puerta de la habitación y recorrió el perfil dorado del número ochenta y ocho con sus dedos, que coincidía con su dígito de la suerte. Repitió el mismo gesto tres veces, era su ritual cada vez que salía de aquella habitación. Para ella el ocho y el infinito estaban implícitos el uno en el otro. Se le antojaba un acto caprichoso y fetichista para cerrar esos momentos clandestinos.”

“El cuerpo de Julie se estremeció. Se giró hacia la voz que había pronunciado esas palabras cerca de su oído. No podía evitarlo, ese joven le provocaba un extraño deseo que la arrastraba a entregarse al otro lado de sus propios límites… ¿Qué le estaba ocurriendo? ¿Quién era esa mujer que emergía con descaro? Una parte de ella no se reconocía, pero ora avanzaba despierta como un animal salvaje que buscaba saciar su hambre.”

“Creative leaps are not always graceful, beautiful, or turn out the way we think they will. We often feel ridiculous. Sometimes we take leaps spontaneously, completely unprepared for the changes that happen when we do. Other times we plan and debate, trying to get all our details perfect first. As soon as our feet have left the ground, we may convince ourselves we’ve made a mistake, simply because we are not used to how leaping feels.”

“When we take intuitive and creative leaps of courage into the void, into the black holes of our own consciousness, our hearts leap out along with us. Sometimes we’re lucky and when we’re mid-leap, hanging out there in mid-air, we discover that we are not alone and never have been. Life holds out her two hands to meet us and we are caught.”

“Every now and then, we reach a point in life where we know it’s time for a change. It might start as feeling stuck or bored. We might feel sad about dreams that have not yet come true or frustrated that our old way of doing things isn’t working anymore. Or we may simply wish that we had more time, or more control over the limited time that we do have. When we experience feelings like this, it’s natural to think they are personal, about us, who we are and the unique details of our lives. The truth is, however, we are not alone. People all over the world right now in this exact moment are having similar thoughts and feelings.”

“It’s easy to get lured into thinking that the answer is out there somewhere, in some magical program or guidebook, in some grand gesture or action we need to take. In my experience, the first step—often the most important leap of all—is one we take within.”
