There are so much things out there in the world that we probably aren’t aware of the existence yet until you start sharing and start talking about it. Share anything, everything under the Sun. This list shall be never ending, which means we gotta continue to explore and learn all the time!
p/s: There is nothing personal on the sharings.

Quotations
Rocky Balboa:
“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that!
Jiddu Krisnamurti:
“Truth is a pathless land.”
“When one loses the deep intimate relationship with nature, then temples, mosques and churches become important.”
“What is needed, rather than running away or controlling or suppressing or any other resistance, is understanding fear; that means, watch it, learn about it, come directly into contact with it. We are to learn about fear, not how to escape from it.”
“Freedom and love go together. Love is not a reaction. If I love you because you love me, that is mere trade, a thing to be bought in the market; it is not love. To love is not to ask anything in return, not even to feel that you are giving something- and it is only such love that can know freedom.”
“ 
You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing, and dance, and write poems, and suffer, and understand, for all that is life.”
Dan Millman from the Way of the Peaceful Warrior:
“This moment is the only thing that matters. “
Socrates: Where are you?
Dan Millman: Here.
Socrates: What time is it?
Dan Millman: Now.
Socrates: What are you?
Dan Millman: This moment.”
“The journey is what brings us happiness not the destination.”
“A warrior is not about perfection or victory or invulnerability. He’s about absolute vulnerability. “
“Death isn’t sad. The sad thing is: most people don’t live at all.”
“If you don’t get what you want, you suffer; if you get what you don’t want, you suffer, even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can’t hold on to it forever. Your mind is your predicament. It wants to be free of change. Free of pain, free of the obligations of life and death. But change is a law, and no amunt of pretending will alter that reality.”
Eckhart Tolle from The Power of Now:
“If it is the quality of your consciousness at this moment that determines the future, then what is it that determines the quality of your consciousness? Your degree of presence.”
Paulo Coelho from The Alchemist:
“When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
“When each day is the same as the next, it’s because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises.”
“God has prepared a path for everyone to follow. You just have to read the omens that he left for you.”
“Life attracts life.”
“When you are loved, you can do anything in creation. When you are loved, there’s no need at all to understand what’s happening, because everything happens within you.”

苏芮 – 牵手
This song is about a couple who walked their journey of life together till old and till death parts them. Very meaningful song. It is a commitment to each other to brave the storms with your partner no matter what. The song was played in the memorial program for HCA Hospice Care where patients’ pictures were screened with this piece of music as background. Many families of the deceased teared.
