““Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.””— Dalai Lama
(vianaturaekos)

The way to live in the present is to remember that ‘This too shall pass.’ When you experience joy, remembering that ‘This too shall pass’ helps you savor the here and now. When you experience pain and sorrow, remembering that ‘This too shall pass’ reminds you that grief, like joy, is only temporary.
Joey Green
The things that matter most in our lives are not fantastic or grand. They are moments when we touch one another.
Jack Kornfield

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

Neil Gaiman

We are all hypocrites. We cannot see ourselves or judge ourselves the way we see and judge others.
José Emilio Pacheco
