The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.

Pearl S. Buck

Hmmm - I disagree. It's possible to live alone and contribute a lot to your local community. Choosing to live alone does not, of itself, mean isolation.

I agree but I think that what is meant here is living like a recluse

Learn to carry all the conditions of happiness within yourself by meditating
and attuning your consciousness to ever existing, ever-conscious, ever- new
Joy, which is God.
Your happiness should never be subject to any outside influence.

~Paramahansa Yogananda

My apologies Miss.Hepburn. I did not realize I had the authors mixed up.
I saw the quote on a blogging site and shared it because it seems to resonate with me. A E was the name it had under the quote.

:smile:

"...your every moment is impacted by your Connection or lack of
Connection to your Inner Being - to the Total You...to the You that you were before you were born
into this physical body."

I have always been crazy but its kept me from going insane

I hope no one minds the country singer quotes I put in here. I just find them fun. And wanted to share some fun

God lives in each heart and he who consciously dwells in the
secret of His presence comes into an understanding of the
creative powers of the universe.

Cora Fillmore, 1937

This is great! This is what I live by. I have never been happier. Before I had a business that I since given away, money, and lots of posessions. Today I give a third of money away to family. Everything I own fits in three bags. I live in a truck as a trucker instead of a home. But the intoxication of the energy not the drama is my happiness. There is no comparison. The thought of buying into plastic happiness is a joke to me. Great quote. Thank you for posting it!
