Sorrows Of Life Quotes

“Our basic instinct is something that is innate to us. It is not something we pursue or learn. A bird does not learn to sing. A bird is instinctively ‘songful’. Similarly a human being does not have to learn to be joyful. We are instinctively joyful. The reason we do not experience joy is that we have learnt its exact opposite – to be sorrowful. Sorrow is mental suffering or pain caused by injury, loss of despair. While pain is physical, sorrow and misery are mental states. Sometimes pain cannot be avoided, however, sorrow can be unlearnt. This is simply because sorrow is not real, sorrow is a mental make-up.”

“Every single sorrow in my heart came about as a result of my forgetting who I am. Every single catastrophe that has happened in my life was designed to cause me to forget who I am. If there is one weapon you need to repeatedly pick up and continuously hold onto, that is the sword and shield and armour of KNOWING THYSELF. Know your soul, see your spirit, look at who you are and breathe it. This is your mission in life. This is the treasure your enemy wants to steal.”

“If this is for real, Please don't!!! We are all struggling one way or the other, a lot of pains on told, a lot of tears retained, a lot of actions revoked, a lot of plans annulled, if am to continue, I definitely have enough words to continue, but non can qualify my thoughts, non can transcribe my very mind, so, in short, don't give up, it's just some few more steps, don't be swallowed up”

“Do not bury your sorrows like seeds in a garden; instead, let them cascade onto the soil of the earth the way rain patters on rooftops, flows down bricks, alas to drench grass and flowers. Do not bury your anguish; let it drip like rainclouds; you will miss the sunlight but when blooms finally blossom, you'll understand that the sun cannot grow flowers without her rain.”
