By Paulo Coelho
The warrior knows that the most important words in all languages are the small words.
Yes. Love. God.
They are words that are easy enough to say and which fill vast empty spaces.

I also have been totally saying some thing very similar to any one that will listen.
I cannot resist of not making you … laugh!
There is a very wise Cypriot quote: If you are shy [to say NO,NO,NO], then you become…. pregnant!!!
So it is for all the girls here, you must learn to say NO.

In life we are taught to say no. But what if universe doesn’t hear no, if it is only able to hear yes. Can we learn to know our life by saying no? Yes brings passion but also lots of pain into our lifes….
But didn’t we come here for all of it?
Yes.
I don’t think we need a dictionary of these words ,our dictionary is our mind and our heart! I don’t read yet this book because it’ll be a Christmas present from my daughters ,but ‘chut” I don’t know it ,over, the magic of this day break down ! and I’like the magic for everythings ,we’re all magics if we want ,if we believe it ,so I want a better world for a longtime ,and I’ m with every people who think that so we’re all magicians! what about this idea ?
great!
…..Please, Thank you, Welcome, Excuse me !!!
All words that bring peace and well-being ….
I would like to have a dictionary with all this words…
Is because small words often are hard to use.Like saying :thank you.I am sorry.How many times we might feel too proud?Or is because small worlds are understood by everybody,even without academical studies.
Art, Joy and We.
‘The vast empty spaces, between two souls, can be filled in, only by ..LOVE, and with those small words spoken with.. tenderness’.

This manual is one of several things that contribute to my devotions in the morning, in effect triangulating focus on the peculiar and unique set of challenges the day’s adventure brings.
I find the admonitions, instructions, illustrations, etc., to be very human and humane, adjusting my own expectations and efforts, usually excessive in nature, to a moderate and accepting reality.
These small words remarked upon are frequently the touchstones upon which my arguments, negotiations, meditations, arbitrations and implementations with myself are founded.
“yes” maybe not so much because there is the element of fear lurking just behind that word I still struggle with. I know that word and the consequences of using it, which are mostly good, but, I swear, it sure is a lot of work to open up so fully to accept everything that follow after “Yes”… but I am always be better for it…
Easy to say by tonque, than feeling by heart ;-)
It’s funny actually. I was thinking about that the other day. My boyfriend and I both write. He uses a lot of words to describe something and I don’t. Eventhough we’re writing about the same thing we use different styles. I use the important words. He uses other words to describe those words.
