“I have always used the burqa because men are using the burqa in the name of culture and religion to take freedom from women. Women are alive, they have their own wishes and desires, but all the time they have to sacrifice that. They are a kind of skeleton, which doesn't have muscles. They're just breathing, like a kind of puppet that barely exists. If women spoke for their rights, they were beaten by their husbands. So they don't have a voice. They lose their voices and their wishes and their happiness.” IfsMenKindUsedDesireCultureNamesWishVoiceLosesAliveRightsSacrificeHusbandBreathingMusclesSpokesBeatenMen WomenPuppetsSkeletonsBurqaCulture And Religion Author:Malina Suliman

“The artist who gives up an hour of work for an hour of conversation with a friend knows that he is sacrificing a reality for something that does not exist (our friends being friends only in the light of an agreeable folly which travels with us through life and to which we readily accommodate ourselves, but which at the bottom of our hearts we know to be no more reasonable than the delusion of the man who talks to the furniture because he believes that it is alive.).” KnowsMenGivingBelieveHeartDoeRealityLightArtistHoursAliveSacrificeHe ManConversationGiving UpBottomFollyReasonableDelusionFurnitureAccommodate Book:The past recaptured Source: The past recaptured
“I found myself thinking a lot about my own spirituality. What it means to be Jewish, what it means to forgive, what it means to sacrifice, but mostly what it means to be alive, how to be a better person, how not to make the mistakes my parents had made. I guess that's what one might typically call a midlife crisis.” ThinkingMeanPersonsMadeMightSpiritualityFoundParentMy OwnMistakeAliveSacrificeCrisisForgivingBetter PersonBeing A Better PersonMidlifeMidlife Crisis Author:Tod Goldberg
“Wake up now, look alive, for here is a day off work just to praise Creation: the turkey, the squash, and the corn, these things that ate and drank sunshine, grass, mud, and rain, and then in the shortening days laid down their lives for our welfare and onward resolve. There's the miracle for you, the absolute sacrifice that still holds back seed: a germ of promise to do the whole thing again, another time. . . Thanksgiving is Creation's birthday party.

“We value the individual. We probably put too much emphasis on the individual, if it comes right down to it.

“We can smile, breathe, walk, and eat our meals in a way that allows us to be in touch with the abundance of happiness that is available. We are very good at preparing to live, but not very good at living. We know how to sacrifice ten years for a diploma, and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on. But we have difficulty remembering that we are alive in the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive. Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.” KnowsWayNeedsYearsHardMomentsJobsRememberHappinessJoyHouseWalksStepsKnow HowAliveSacrificeCarWillingTenYogaDifficultyBreathsFilledVery GoodAvailableBreatheAwakeningAwakeMealsAbundancePresent MomentSerenityPreparingLive In The PresentEvery StepDiplomaPeace Is Every Step Author:Nhat Hanh
