Sometimes the only way we can overcome all of these obstacles is by starting, wherever we are, with whatever we have to offer in the moment. Really, just begin.

Life is brighter than we think and better as we are. We just need to open our eyes and follow our heart.” ― Nina Hrusa

The moment we care for anything deeply, the world - that is, all the other miscellaneous interests - becomes our enemy. Christians showed it when they talked of keeping one's self "unspotted from the world;" but lovers talk of it just as much when they talk of the "world well lost."

But they all felt a certain truth - the truth that the moment you love anything the world becomes your foe.
