Life only begins to be an adventure when we cease living it for ourselves.
-Joel S. Goldsmith
My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.
Selfless service alone gives the needed strength and courage to awaken the real you sleeping in your heart.
Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it.
-Jacques Prévert
Because that’s what kindness is. It’s not doing something for someone else because they can’t but because you can.
Hanuman, the devotee of Rama, said: When I identify myself with the body, O Lord, I am Thy creature, eternally separate from Thee. When I identify myself with the soul, I am a spark of that Divine Fire which Thou art. But when I identify myself with the Atman, I and Thou art one.
Happiness is like a cat. If you try to coax it or call it, it will avoid you. It will never come. But if you pay no attention to it and go about your business, you'll find it rubbing up against your legs and jumping into your lap.
-William J. Bennett
