one's sense of inherent worth.

merely because we respect that person's
other ideas or accomplishments.

The "stories" we choose to tell about our past
are never what a video camera would have recorded.

and neither story is either
more accurate or "better" than the other story.
The difference is that one story causes us to suffer,
while the other brings us joy. I choose joy.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
The success of love is in the loving -
it is not in the result of loving.

does not determine the value of what we have done.
- Mother Teresa
The only reason we don't open our hearts and minds to other people

we feel confident and fearless about looking into someone else's eyes.
- Pema Chodron

My vision of a real humanity is of pure individuals
relating to each other, but not tied in any relationship.
They will be loving to each other,

They will be sharing with each other
all their joys and all their blessings,
but never even in their dreams thinking of dominating,
thinking of enslaving the other person.
- Osho (Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh)
A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue,
but the parent of all other virtues.

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
