Your Light

Doubt everything. Find your own light. Buddha

Too Old?

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. C.S. Lewis

Love

So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you. Paulo Coelho

Thank You

If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough. Meister Eckhart

New Ending

Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending. Carl Bard

Gratitude

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Melody Beattie

Inside

The Guest is inside you, and also inside me; you know the sprout is hidden inside the seed. We are all struggling; none of us has gone far. Let your arrogance go, and look around inside. The blue sky opens out further and farther, the daily sense of failure goes away, the damage I have done to myself fades, a million suns come forward with light, when I sit firmly in that world. Kabir

The Road

If the road is easy, you're likely going the wrong way. Terry Goodkind

Character

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are. John Wooden

Self-discipline

Self-discipline begins with the mastery of your thoughts. If you don't control what you think, you can't control what you do. Simply, self-discipline enables you to think first and act afterward. Napoleon Hill

Growth

The essence of all growth is a willingness to change for the better and then an unremitting willingness to shoulder whatever responsibility this entails. Bill Wilson

Storms

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning how to dance in the rain. Vivian Greene

Goodness

If you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul. Rabbi Harold Kushner

Persistence

As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives. Henry David Thoreau

Environment

You are a product of your environment. So choose the environment that will best develop you toward your objective. Analyze your life in terms of its environment. Are the things around you helping you toward success - or are they holding you back? W. Clement Stone

Observation

Observation, not old age, brings wisdom. Publilius Syrus

Laughter

Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine. Lord Byron

The Wise

The wise see in every form the divine form; in every heart they see the divine light shining. Hazrat Inayat Khan 

Dragons

Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love. Rainer Maria Rilke

Time

Time is the coin of your life. You spend it. Do not allow others to spend it for you. Carl Sandburg

Prayer

Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.  Mahatma Gandhi

The Heart

Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold. Zelda Fitzgerald

Power

With great power... comes great need to take a nap. Wake me up later. Rick Riordan

Worthy

You're imperfect, and you're wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging. Brené Brown

Education

Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.  Albert Einstein

Acceptance

Some people confuse acceptance with apathy but there's all the difference in the world. Apathy fails to distinguish what can and cannot be helped; acceptance makes the distinction. Arthur Gordon

Faith

Once the seed of faith takes root, it cannot be blown away, even by the strongest wind –Now that’s a blessing. Rumi

Hope

Practice hope. As hopefulness becomes a habit, you can achieve a permanently happy spirit. Norman Vincent Peale

The Power

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. Leo Buscaglia
