choose to take "pay it forward" farther - much farther.

The heart is unpolluted.
- Osho

When you cry and weep,
when you are miserable,
you are alone.
When you celebrate,

Only in celebration
do we go beyond the circle of birth and death.
- Osho

What is a miracle? To some, it is an act of God.
To others, something amazing, extraordinary, or unexpected.

are all so improbable.

insight of the whole existence.
Now you are no longer separate -
you have found your roots.
- Osho
