Your body knows you very intimately,

Your body knows you very intimately, it is aware of your whole spirit and soul life. 

Far sooner than your mind, your body knows how privileged it is to be here.

John O'Donohue

The heart sleeps until it is awakened to life by a blow

The heart sleeps until it is awakened to life by a blow; it is as a rock, and the hidden fire flashes out when struck by another rock.

Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

It matters only that you love .

"It matters not Who you love, Where you love, Why you love, When you love, Or how you love, It matters only that you love." 

-- John Lennon 

The sun shines not on us but in us.

"The sun shines not on us but in us. The rivers flow not past, but through us, thrilling, tingling, vibrating every fiber and cell of the substance of our bodies, making them glide and sing." 

-- John Muir
