I think what's going on in Guantanamo Bay
and other places is a disgrace to the U.S.A.

but it has given impetus and excuses to potential terrorists
to lash out at our country and justify their despicable acts.
- Jimmy Carter
What has happened at Guantanamo Bay...
does not represent the will of the American people.
I'm embarrassed about it, I think its wrong.
I think it does give terrorists an unwarranted excuse
to use the despicable means to hurt innocent people.

as the mountain to the climber
is clearer from the plain.

it is merely the absence of light.

the darkness disappears.

Open yourself to the Light!
Hold back nothing,
Trust in the Light.

in the absence of good grounds for belief,
he will be satisfied with bad ones.

Although the world is full of suffering,

that it may prevail.

in the presence of self-respect
and the absence of ego.

Love everyone in the whole world.

as is every other life.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
When you are alone you are not alone,
you are simply lonely -
and there is a tremendous difference
between loneliness and aloneness.
When you are lonely you are thinking of the other,
you are missing the other.
Loneliness is a negative state.
You are feeling that it would have been
better if the other were there -
your friend, your wife, your mother,
your beloved, your husband.
It would have been good if the other
were there, but the other is not.
Loneliness is absence of the other.
Aloneness is the presence of oneself.
Aloneness is very positive.
It is a presence, overflowing presence.
You are so full of presence
that you can fill the whole universe
with your presence and there is no need for anybody.
- Osho
The child in me could not die as it should have died,
because according too legends it must find its father again.
The old legends knew, perhaps, that in absence
the father becomes glorified, deified, eroticized,
and this outrage against God the Father has to be atoned for.
The human father has to be confronted and recognized as human,
as man who created a child and then, by his absence,
left the child fatherless and then Godless.
- Anais Nin
Darkness cannot drive out darkness;
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate;
only love can do that.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
However rare true love may be,

If you love something, set it free;

Throw your dreams into space like a kite,
and you do not know what it will bring back,
a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.

Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.
- Rabindranath Tagore
Sometimes new love comes between old friends.
Sometimes the best love was the one that was always there.

Your task is not to seek for love,
but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself
that you have built against it.

the way they are and the way they are not.
