Don’t spend your life running from bad feelings,
thinking you can’t stand the pain.
You’ve already borne the pain.
What you have not done is feel
all that you are beyond that pain.
Kalil Gibran (paraphrased)
Praise and blame, gain and loss,
pleasure and sorrow
come and go like the wind.
To be happy, rest like a giant tree
in the midst of them all.
The Buddha
“Don’t judge each day
by the harvest you reap,
but by the seeds that you plant.”
Robert Louis Stevenson
“We can’t help everyone,
but everyone can help someone.”
Ronald Reagan
Holding on to anger is like holding on to a hot coal
with the intent of throwing it at someone else.
You are the one who gets burned.

If you are patient in one moment of anger,
you will escape a hundred days of sorrow.
Chinese Epigram
“What do we live for,
if it is not to make life
less difficult for each other?”
Mary Ann Evans
Treat the Earth well:
It was not given to you by your parents;
it was loaned to you by your children.

“Nothing is impossible,
the word itself says,
“I’m possible.”!
