“There tend to be two different drives that lead young people toward music. One is that music provides an escape; it takes you away from the unhappiness or torture of where you are and makes you feel less alienated-you believe there is a place you fit in somewhere else. The other is a sort of transcendent, spiritual feeling in the purity of music.” PeopleFeelsBelieveTwoDifferentFeelingsSpiritualYoungFitTorturePurityUnhappinessWhere You AreSomewhere ElseTranscendent Author:Michael Stipe
“Never waste time and energy wishing you were somewhere else, doing something else. Accept your situation and realize you are where you are, doing what you are doing, for a very specific reason. Realize that nothing is by chance, that you have certain lessons to learn and that the situation you are in has been given to you to enable you to learn those lessons as quickly as possible, so that you can move onward and upward along this spiritual path.” Has BeensReasonSpiritualMovingCertainEnergyGivenWishRealizingChanceSituationAcceptingPathLessonsWasteWhere You AreWasting TimeSomewhere ElseSpiritual PathTime And EnergyOnward And Upward Author:Eileen Caddy
“If you want to serve the universe, the obvious place to begin is right where you are. That's where I began. I looked at every situation I came into and wondered, 'What can I do to be of service in this situation?' Sometimes there was nothing I could do, but often there was - a helping hand, a word of cheer, a pleasant smile. Then, after I had given a lot, a most wonderful spiritual receiving began - giving me more to give.” IfsWantGivingSometimesHelpingHandsSpiritualUniverseGivenSituationWonderfulObviousPleasantWhere You AreCheerReceivingHelping Hand Author:Peace Pilgrim
