13.6.12

C'est une absolue perfection, et comme divine, de savoir jouir loyalement de son être....

To know how to enjoy being truly yourself is utter perfection - and  next to divine.
We seek other ways of being because we don't understand how to make use of our own, and we constantly look outside ourselves because we don't realise what is inside.
