“It turns out that our ability to connect with other people is driven by our ability to connect deeply with ourselves.

That can be a few moments spent in meditation or in prayer or remembering three things you’re grateful for.”
– Vivek Murthy

Pakistan
Madagascar

“A best friend is someone with whom you can sit on the porch, without a word, and then walk away with the feeling that it was the best conversation that ever had in your life. I would like to see next to me was the man in whose presence my heart beat would be evenly and uniformly, the man next to whom I would be calm, because I was not afraid to be the next day to lose him. And the time would have flowed more slowly, and we could just keep quiet, knowing that to talk with us there is still a whole life.”
– Paulo Coelho

Honduras
India

“The swing on your porch is a better liver of life
than the chair in front of your desk.”
– Terri Guillemets
