We will walk on our own feet, we will work with our own hands, we will speak our own minds.

You will be happier if you give a piece of your heart instead of a piece of your mind to those who
oppose you.

An obstinate man does not hold opinions - they hold him.
-
Tell me and I forget. Show me and I remember. Involve me and I understand.

All reports are in. Life is now officially unfair.

Every time someone argues with you, they are trying to shatter your mental boundary.
If you don't pick up the first drug or drink, it is impossible to get stoned or drunk. It doesn't
get simpler than that.
Until we extend the circle of our compassion to all living things, we will not ourselves find peace.
There is a place in the heart where thoughts become wishes and wishes become dreams. It is a place
where anything is possible if we only believe.
It is not by muscle, speed, or physical dexterity that great things are achieved but by reflection,
force of character, and judgement in these qualities old age is usually not only not poorer, but is even richer.
If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should
not grow old.
In such journeys, time is our ally, not our enemy. We can grow wise. As the arteries harden,
the spirit can lighten. As the legs fail, the soul can take wing. Things do add up. Life does have shape and maybe even purpose.
Or so it seems to me.
Remember...You are Enough, You do Enough, You have Enough, Right now, This moment.
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly ~ what is essential is invisible to the eye.
It is only thorugh letting our heart break that we discover something unexpected ~ the heart cannot actually
break open. When we feel both love for this world and all the pain of this world together ~ at the same time ~ the heart
breaks out of its shell. To live with an open heart is to experience life sull-strength.
To have the lat word, try an apology.
A smile is a light in the window of your face that shows that your heart is at home.
Nothing is more magical than laughter.
Only from the heart can you touch the sky.
When your dreams turn to dust ~ vacuum.
Grief cannot be dry cleaned ~ it must be washed in tears.
