If you can't find the way, maybe there's no path to walk. Maybe you're simply meant to stay. Some things aren't asking to be fixed - just to be embraced. Like clouds: you don't move them, you let them pass. Not everything is a knot to untie. Sometimes it's just a thread to let go of, because not everything can be solved, but it can be accepted.- Lao Zen Scacciapensieri

Welcome what is, for what was not simply wasn't Heaven's time. Asking 'what if?' is like trying to hold sand in your hands. Life flows where it must, and every effect leads you to where you are, whether you accept it or not. So walk on, without too much haste or regret: the path reveals itself only to those who walk it. Look back only to take in the view, whatever it may be.- Lao Zen Scacciapensieri
Don't force yourself to laugh, learn to recognize the value of a smile. With lightness, let unpleasant things pass, welcome the unexpected as part of the journey, and find joy even where ordinary eyes see only burden. A quiet heart laughs for no reason and moves through the day without strain. Those who take everything too seriously are like someone who builds obstacles only to trip over them. Life is like a train ride: there's no point in keeping all your luggage on your lap-just place it on the overhead rack.- Lao Zen Scacciapensieri
The real challenge is not just to cross the river of life, but to do so without letting the waters overwhelm us or turn us into something we are not. True courage is swimming with the current of our own being, without fearing the loss of our shape. Observe: even if the current is strong, the salmon always knows where to go, because it is not afraid to swim upstream. And if life pushes you underwater, know this: if you learn to swim, the water becomes your sea.- Lao Zen Scacciapensieri
Time waits for no one; what flows clear today may turn to fog tomorrow. Act now, like the flower that blooms at the first touch of sunlight, without asking if the dawn will return. What you postpone often becomes a burden, like a forgotten bucket of water: it not only fails to quench your thirst, but it rusts the well. In the end, postponing is like sitting on the grass, waiting for it to cut itself.- Lao Zen Scacciapensieri
The wise one fears the warrior who can do everything, and even more so the one who can do nothing but promises much. For the first destroys with his hands, the second with illusions. Both leave ruins: one visible, the other deep. The true path is to beware of excess-whether of zeal or of emptiness. And if you must choose, remember: the silence of the useless is more precious than the clamor of the harmful.- Lao Zen Scacciapensieri
Prefer to be defeated in the presence of the wise than to excel among fools.- Dogan Zengji
