More From Friedrich Nietzsche

It’s a new year and with it comes a fresh opportunity to shape our world. so this is my wish, a wish for me as much as it is a wish for you: in the world to come, let us be brave – let us walk into the dark without fear, and step into the unknown with smiles on our faces, even if we’re faking them. and whatever happens to us, whatever we make, whatever we learn, let us take joy in it. we can find joy in the world if it’s joy we’re looking for, we can take joy in the act of creation. so that is my wish for you, and for me. bravery and joy.
New Year Dark Opportunity
Happiness is a state of non-contradictory joy--a joy without penalty or guilt, a joy that does not clash with any of your values and does not work for your own destruction, not the joy of escaping from your mind, but of using your mind's fullest power, not the joy of faking reality, but of achieving values that are real, not the joy of a drunkard, but of a producer.
Happiness Real Escaping
Do we need to make a special effort to enjoy the beauty of the blue sky? do we have to practice to be able to enjoy it? no, we just enjoy it. each second, each minute of our lives can be like this. wherever we are, any time, we have the capacity to enjoy the sunshine, the presence of each other, even the sensation of our breathing. we don't need to go to china to enjoy the blue sky. we don't have to travel into the future to enjoy our breathing. we can be in touch with these things right now.
Sunshine Practice Sky
There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward. and there are those who give with pain, and that pain is their baptism. and there are those who give and know not pain in giving, nor do they seek joy, nor give with mindfulness of virtue; they give as in yonder valley the myrtle breathes its fragrance into space. through the hands of such as these god speaks, and from behind their eyes he smiles upon the earth.
Pain Eye Hands
Don't wish it was easier, wish you were better. don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills. don't wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom. the major value in life is not what you get. the major value in life is what you become. success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become.

You can be an artist without visual images, a reader without eyes, a mass of erudition with a bad elementary memory. in almost any subject your passion for the subject will save you. if you only care enough for a result, you will almost certainly attain it. if you wish to be rich, you will be rich; if you wish to be learned, you will be learned; if you wish to be good, you will be good. only you must, then, really wish these things, and wish them with exclusiveness, and not wish at the same time a hundred other incompatible things just as strongly.

The wheat field has ...poetry; it is like a memory of something one has once seen. we can only make our pictures speak.
Memories Wheat Fields Speak
The wheel of time turns, and ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the age that gave it birth comes again. in one age, called the third age by some, an age yet to come, an age long past, a wind rose in the mountains of mist. the wind was not the beginning. there are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the wheel of time. but it was a beginning.
Memories Past Wind
Memory is the way we keep telling ourselves our stories - and telling other people a somewhat different version of our stories.
Memories People Different
We've outsourced our memories to digital devices, and the result is that we no longer trust our memories. we see every small forgotten thing as evidence that they're failing us.
