Not in doing what you like, but in liking what you do is the secret of happiness

“Everyone needs a house to live in, but a supportive family is what builds a home.”

“Show your anger when needed. People need to know what irritates you and what doesn’t. But, crucially, remain internally calm. Your anger is only a tool. Don’t become its puppet.”

“Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.”

“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.”

“When a flower doesn’t bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower.”

“Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.”

Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.

Never apologize for being sensitive or emotional. It’s a sign that you have big heart, and that you aren’t afraid to let others see it. Showing your emotions is a sign of strength. 

Love Me or Hate Me
