“The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the greatest intention.”

“That is what compassion does. It challenges our assumptions, our sense of self-limitation, worthlessness, of not having a place in the world, our feelings of loneliness and estrangement. These are narrow, constrictive states of mind. As we develop compassion, our hearts open.”

“Stress, anxiety, and depression are caused when we are living to please others.”

“Thinking is difficult, that’s why most people judge.”

“When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know. But if you listen you may learn something new.”

I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor. Do you know your next door neighbor?

Time is precious, waste it wisely

Life is about balance. Be kind, but don’t let people abuse you. Trust, but don’t be deceived. Be content, but never stop improving yourself.

 “For attractive lips, speak words of kindness…

“Sometimes we can feel like we are not good enough, but it is important to remember that we have nothing to prove others. Love and respect yourself each and every day.”

“When all the dust is settled and all the crowds are gone, the things that matter are faith, family, and friends.”

“They are not your friend unless they have defended you in your absence.”
