while adapting your tactics.
Relax and stay flexible in order to reach
your goals and maintain your happiness.

Don't take it personally.

the thing that we fear grows stronger.

You've got to really look after it and nurture it.
- John Lennon
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth,
so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind.

To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over
the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
- Henry David Thoreau
The problem with making assumptions
is that we believe they are the truth

I think that is a much greater hunger,
a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.

Consider being more acceptive of your partner's behaviors.
It is unlikely that they are intentionally aggravating you.
Almost always, they are just doing what they think they should do.
Try setting aside your own rules for how they should behave,
and adopt a live-and-let-live attitude.
Your relationship will become stronger and happier if you do.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
I simply can't build my hopes on a foundation
of confusion, misery and death...
I think... peace and tranquillity will return again.

I think one of the finest gifts I can give
my friends in the holiday season is to pause
with a long enough quality to actually SEE them.
My calm, unhurried presence communicates
this gift of a message, "I see you. I recognize you.
I remember our times of together
and am contributing right now to another quality memory.
I value you and honor and take the time,
right this moment to pause long enough to truly notice you."
- Mary Anne Radmacher

We all should choose our friends carefully.
I used to think that no one could know me better than somebody else,
because you're inside yourself, your body, you can't see yourself.
If you think like that, you surround yourself with
other people who are willing to tell you who you are,
which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.
- Jewel
