Was awakened in the night to a strain of music dying away, passing travellers singing.

And now here is my secret, a very simple secret; it is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
#quotes #antoine-de-saint-exupéry #the-little-prince #heart #seeing

There is a very simple secret to being happy. Just let go of your "demand" on this moment. Any time you have a demand on the moment to give you something or remove something, there is suffering.
