in what seems like just another ordinary day.

Always question WHY you are doing something.
Is it a free-will gift or an obligation?

on the part of the recipient.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

For your friends till they are dead;
Do not write them on their tombstones,
Speak them rather now instead.

certain set of attitudes.

LOVE LETTERS TO YOURSELF
This is taken from a love letter (a gentle reminder)
I wrote to myself recently.
Live in your joy today.
Be authentic. Love yourself. First.
Love others from your own abundance.

of being into new circumstances
rather than becoming new yourself.
Embrace transformation as an opportunity.
And keep on writing love letters to yourself.

Expectation (demand) is always a cause of suffering.
Rather than "expecting" to be repaid
when we "loan" something to someone,
consider the "loans" we make to be forward payments
for the "loans" we received from
our ancestors, nurturers and others.
Request that any "loan" that we make be repaid FORWARD,
when the recipient is able,
and then completely forget about the "loan."
It is no longer our business if, when, or how
the "loan" is repaid - or is not repaid.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

The function of prayer is not to influence God,
but rather to change the nature of the one who prays.

being swayed by the opinions of others.

Courage is not the absence of fear,
but rather the judgement that something else
is more important than fear.

rather than calling it a crisis.

than a lifetime of nothing special.
