A substance of your beautiful self. Because when you look back to those moments, you feel a sense of relief, a sense of accomplishment; and deep in your heart, you know you have carried out something that was right. I say : 'Live up to your morals and values- whilst remaining aware of them, embrace your unique self, your individuality and be happy the way you are.

Always respect yourself as a woman. You attract what you are, so be very mindful of how you’re representing yourself. If you want respect, you must first learn how to respect yourself, first. Attracting negative attention is never a good thing. Be a woman of substance! Be a woman that both women and men respect, admire, and look up to. Don’t disrespect yourself by lowering your standards and accepting just anything that comes your way. It’s okay to be single! If you want a relationship of substance, you can’t keep entertaining people and things that mean you no good. Think about it!

What is the half-life of a memory of that mortal consciousness? Of course, this is purely an academic question and of no immediate concern to those of us existing in the world of the living, for we possess already a memory, in its stead, which serves as a basis of our perception of the past. Accurate or not, this nature of memory allows us to understand the past according to the positions occupied by the flesh about which we seek to know, but, unfortunately, not in a way relative to the flesh itself—that flesh stripped of identity and circumstance, that flesh which, in its most rudimentary capacity, had once collided, interacted, fought, competed, negotiated, cooperated, and mated with other flesh: there is no history of this kind, thoroughly naked and telling enough, which is accessible to us, for we are composed of the very same substance, the very same flesh, and sadly incapable of stepping outside of it, even momentarily.","author":"Ashim Shanker","tags":["ashim-shanker","consciousness","flesh","half-life","history-of-material-substance","imagined-experience","impermanence","insubstantial","memory-and-imagination","mortality","roles","sublime","substance","tangible-versus-intangible"],"id":115284,"author_id":"Ashim+Shanker"},{"text":"The role of genius is not to complicate the simple, but to simplify the complicated.","author":"Criss Jami","tags":["accessibility","complication","genius","intelligence","practicality","practicality-for-intellectuals","roles","simplicity","substance"],"id":121556,"author_id":"Criss+Jami"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":44,"pages":5,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
