Miserable Quotes

We’re miserable because we think that we are mere individuals, alone with our fears and flaws and resentments and mortality. We wrongly believe that our limited little egos constitute our whole entire nature. We have failed to recognize our deeper divine character Picture Quote #1

To the best of my belief, our case was in the last aspect a rather common one Picture Quote #1
