Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected
in a cosmic religion for the future:

aspiring from the experience of all things,
natural and spiritual, as a meaningful unity.
- Albert Einstein

If a man does not make new acquaintances

but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

The very nature of the world is constant change.
You set a goal and create a plan to achieve it;

based your plan change - they always do.

while adapting your tactics.

your goals and maintain your happiness.

Constant kindness can accomplish much.
As the sun makes ice melt,
kindness causes misunderstanding,
mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.
- Albert Schweitzer

Praying without ceasing is not ritualized,
nor are there even words.
It is a constant state of awareness of oneness with God.
- Peace Pilgrim

If you have an emotional reaction in the presence of someone,
your heart is telling you that you have
not resolved your issues with them.
In other words, you have not truly forgiven that person.
All of this begs the question, how do we forgive?
First, cease lying to yourself and stop telling yourself stories
about why you behave the way you do.
Stop blaming your behavior on other people
and take responsibility for your emotional reactions.
If you could forgive all the people in your life
who have hurt or wounded you
it would be possible to be in control of your behavior
instead of being in reaction to other people all of the time.
Imagine living life without experiencing
a constant emotional roller-coaster of pain, anger, and jealousy!
That would be bliss!
- Sheri Rosenthal

Consistent happiness is found through
living in a state of constant gratitude.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

The inherent nature of life is constant change.
To fear change is to fear life itself.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

They must often change,
who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.

Life is a constant oscillation
between the sharp horns of dilemmas.

There is no doubt that life can be a bumpy ride.
But so were those roller coasters you loved as a kid.
Savor the adventure.
Find excitement in the uncertainty and the constant change.
Even let a touch of fear add spice to your life -
as you did on that roller coaster.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

When a man is fortunate enough to have several,

A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.

Every man should have a fair-sized cemetery
in which to bury the faults of his friends.

works two contrary effects;
for it redoubleth joys, and cutteth griefs in half.

wishes it for my sake.

It is what a man does with what happens to him.

When life flows by like a song,
But the man worth while is the one who will smile
When everything goes dead wrong.
