As I go through all kinds of feelings and experiences in my journey through life—delight, surprise, chagrin, dismay—I hold this question as a guiding light: ‘What do I really need right now to be happy?’ What I come to over and over again is that only qualities as vast and deep as love, connection and kindness will really make me happy in any sort of enduring way.

“you don’t have to be an ace at sitting still; you don’t have to wait until you’re uncrazed and decaffeinated. you don’t need to study anything before you begin. you can start right now. if you can breathe, you can meditate.” Sharon Salzburg from Real Happiness: the power of meditation.
