Quote by Katherine Center

“I’m also not declaring that kisses are magic, though maybe the right ones at the right time with the right people are. Who knows? But joy is a kind of magic, for sure.”

“The existential law of love is that the more you give, the more you have. The law of love is also that the less you give, the less you have. And if you don't give at all, love simply disappears from your heart. And if you go on pouring love infinitely, it goes on growing in you infinitely. It is always in the same proportion as you give. Once you understand the law of love, your life goes through a radical change. When you start giving love for no reason other than for the sheer joy of it, the whole universe expands. Then from every direction love starts flowing towards you. Life becomes a festival through life. Then life becomea spring, and thousands of roses bloom in your heart. All that is needed is to share your love without any conditions, and without asking for anything in return. Let this be your meditation: become loving and finallybecome love itself. That is the moment when one discover God within one's own being. God is another name for unconditional love.”

“Instincts are very different from intuition. Instincts guide our behavior without the involvement of conscious thought. As such, they are valuable and necessary for our survival—but they will keep us just there: surviving, not thriving. While instincts are innate, unconscious, and biologically driven behaviors, intuition can be consciously cultivated. Intuition is the intelligence of the heart. By listening to it, we develop sensitivity to the magic of life, gain wisdom, and we begin to find joy and beauty in the present moment. This gives us the courage to live fully—beyond the mere drive to survive.”
