Fear is epic. Whatever it is that scares you, you’ve simply just got to want it bad enough — bad enough that the pain of NOT moving forward is greater than the pain of taking action. Doing this will give you no other choice but to rally every single cell of your body, mind, heart, and soul to move forward and fight for it — honourably, and with conviction. And then make it yours.

A wise woman who was traveling in the mountains found a precious stone in a stream. The next day she met another traveler who was hungry, and the wise woman opened her bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked the woman to give it to him. She did so without hesitation. The traveler left, rejoicing in his good fortune. He knew the stone was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime. But a few days later he came back to return the stone to the wise woman. “I’ve been thinking,” he said, “I know how valuable the stone is, but I give it back in the hope that you can give me something even more precious. Give me what you have within you that enabled you to give me the stone.

Byodo Temple, Oahu, Hawaii by Nate Wong

When we meet someone and fall in love, we have a sense that the whole universe is on our side. And yet if something goes wrong, there is nothing left! How is it possible for the beauty that was there only minutes before to vanish so quickly? Life moves very fast. It rushes from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds.

But love is an amazing thing and I like to tell all the people at all the shows, when you really do fall in love it kind of tears your heart from your chest and it makes you feel really vulnerable and it makes you feel like you can’t eat and you can’t sleep and you wait by the fucking phone all day long. Besides all that shit it’s the best thing you’ve ever felt in your life. Six months, to a year, two years whatever that first little period is of your relationship. It dominates every other feeling in your body and I think that’s truly living.

Closing your eyes isn’t going to change anything. Nothing’s going to disappear just because you can’t see what’s going on. In fact, things will even be worse the next time you open your eyes. That’s the kind of world we live in. Keep your eyes wide open. Only a coward closes his eyes. Closing your eyes and plugging up your ears won’t make time stand still.

- Haruki Murakami
