More Quotes by Mitch Albom
Accept who you are; and revel in it.
There is no such thing as 'too late' in life.
You can find something truly important in an ordinary minute.
Each affects the other, and the other affects the next, and the world is full of stories, but the stories are all one.
The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.
If you hold back on the emotions--if you don't allow yourself to go all the way through them--you can never get to being detached, you're too busy being afraid. You're afraid of the pain, you're afraid of the grief. You're afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails. But by throwing yourself into these emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in, all the way, over your heard even, you experience them fully and completely.
Nothing haunts us like the things we don't say.
You know what really offers you satisfaction? Offering others what you have to give.
You can feel the whole world and still feel lost in it. So many people are in pain-- no matter how smart or accomplished--they cry, they yearn, they hurt. But instead of looking down on things, they look up, which is where I should have been looking, too. Because when the world quiets to the sound of your own breathing, we all want the same things: comfort, love and a peaceful heart.
The truth is, once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.
