I remember the mentoring experiences of some teachers that I had, like a second term home room teacher in public school that really was very helpful to me.
We become happier not by accumulating more things but by creating richer experiences
Our growth depends not on how many experiences we devour, but on how many we digest.
For bel. i. eve me, the more one is, the richer is all one experiences. And whoever wants to have deep love in his life must collect and save for it and gather honey.
Ultimately what I like about reading together is that we all make it happen together. Of course even amid shared experience we’re still alone… each reading of each book is unique. But what a comfort it is to share readings and experiences. How lucky we are when we get to be alone together.
My experiences are universal. I'm not doing anything embarrassing - to me what would be embarrassing is to talk about minutia. It would be embarrassing to get up there and not say anything.
I have absolutely no fear of death. From my near-death research and my personal experiences, death is, in my judgment, simply a transition into another kind of reality.
And that's the wonderful thing about family travel: it provides you with experiences that will remain locked forever in the scar tissue of your mind.
I've been through a lot. It doesn't make me enlightened, or this or that, but I've had a handful of experiences that have given me some information that I can share with others.
Theory must mediate between all previous truths and certain new experiences
What has always been most interesting about acting to me personally is that it affords you the chance to shift gears, both in terms of the experiences you get to have through doing it, but also the different kinds of things you get to represent.
My experiences in film and theatre in the States have been much more rigorous-in England there's an environment of, Let's try this.
Forget the known, don't be all the time immersed in your experiences.
Maybe feeling of presence in my body is why I've always sought out extreme experiences; it forces me to be in a moment, to face the fact of my existing in that particular moment, in my body.
Well, acting has been a dream of mine since I can remember; being in the movies and acting, having those experiences.
The day you become old is the day you're not looking for new experiences anymore.
Different presidents have different strengths, they bring different life experiences.
The books I have read were composed by generations of fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, teachers and disciples. I am the sum total of their experiences, and so are you.
The so-called Church Fathers are not some theologians as we know them nowadays. They were close to the teaching of the Apostles conveying the teaching of those who were close to Jesus. Their theology and wisdom is close to everyday life. We have to thank John Michael Talbot that he has been able to unearth the treasures of those times. This was only possible because he himself in his community experiences the Gospel lived out in our times.
Wouldn't it be amazing if we spent as much energy investing in experiences as we do investing in things?
