“The values of the world we inhabit and the people we surround ourselves with have a profound effect on who we are.”
“We inhabit ourselves without valuing ourselves,unable to see that here, now,this very moment is sacred;but once it’s gone –its value is incontestable.”
“Who and what we surround ourselves with is who and what we become. In the midst of good people, it is easy to be good. in the midst of bad people, it is easy to be bad.”
“All we are is who we surround ourselves with and let into our hearts.”
“According to ayurveda, we become what we surround ourselves with. And so it stands to reason that we have to be discerning about what we surround ourselves with." Steve Cope [p. 85]”
“Reading is how we learn to attach ourselves to ourselves, and to others, and to the world: reading inhabits us with the tendrils of love.”
