So that's the lesson, isn't it? When you set out in the world to help yourself,
it's a lesson I learned, isn't it? When you go out of the world and want to help yourself,
sometimes you end up helping Tutti.
Maybe you end up helping Tufti (everyone).

From your house to bitter, old resentments, and set out on a trust-seeking journey.
This includes your home, or the grudges that have built up in your heart, and start a journey of seeking truth.
Either externally or internally, and if you are truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue;
Both inside and outside, if you really want to see all your experiences as a revelation;
and if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher
;
and if you are prepared, most of all to face and forgive some very difficult realities about yourself, and
most importantly, if you're ready to face and forgive that part of yourself that isn't likable.
then the truth will not be withheld from you.
Then no one can stop you from knowing the truth - the truth of life.

I didn't exactly fall in love with the guy. What happened was I dove out of my marriage and into David's arms exactly the same way a cartoon circus performer dives off a high platform and into a small cup of water, vanishing completely.
Actually I'm not in love with this lad. I just jumped out of my marriage and into David's arms, like a circus performer in a cartoon jumping off a high platform into a small water glass and disappearing without a trace.

He used to receive nothing. The next step he finds you scrawny and shivering in a corner, he's sure you'll sell your soul for another experience.
There is a wonderful old Italian joke about a poor man who goes to church every day and prays before the statue of a great saint, begging: “Dear saint, please, please, please let me win the lottery.” Finally, the exasperated statue comes to life and looks down at the begging man and says: "My son, please, please, please buy a ticket."

Smile to smile on the face, from the heart, even from the liver.
Sometimes to lose balance for love is part of living balanced life

In the end, I've come to believe in something I call "The Physics of the Quest." A force in nature governed by laws as real as the laws of gravity. The rule of Quest Physics goes something like this: If you' re brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting, which can be anything from your house to bitter, old resentments, and set out on a truth-seeking journey, either externally or internally, and if you are truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue, and if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher, and if you are prepared, most of all, to face and forgive some very difficult realities about yourself, then the truth will not be withheld from you. I can't help but believe it, given by my experience. I decided on my word. It means: "Let's cross over."
Eventually, I came to believe in what I call "seeking physics," a force in nature that is as real as gravity. The law of seeking physics is this: If you are brave enough to put aside everything you know and feel at ease, including your home, your pain, your resentment, start a truth-seeking journey—outside If you are really willing to see everything you experience on your journey as a hint, if you see everyone you meet as a mentor, and most importantly, if you are ready to face and Forgive your unpleasant qualities, and the truth will not be too far from you. Through my own experience, I can't help but begin to believe in this law. I found my keyword. It means: "Let's leap over the past!"
