More Quotes by Mitch Albom
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.
Fear is how you lose your life...a little bit at a time...What we give to fear, we take away from...faith.
You can find something truly important in an ordinary minute.
The truth is, once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.
We need to forgive ourselves. For all the things we didn't do. All the things we should have done. You can't get stuck on the regrets of what should have happened.
Desire sets our compass, but real life steers our course.
the words people do not speak are louder than the ones they do.
We all yearn for what we have lost. But sometimes, we forget what we have.
Accept who you are; and revel in it.
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.
