Respect


"The respect you give others
is a dramatic reflection
of the respect
you give yourself."

Robin Sharma


Happiness is Like a Butterfly

"Happiness is like a butterfly.
The more you chase it, the more it eludes you.
But if you turn your attention to other things,
It comes and sits softly on your shoulder."

Henry David Thoreau

Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.”

“Everything in our world,
even a drop of dew,
 is a microcosm of the Universe.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson


Enough Love



“There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer;
no disease that enough love will not heal; 
no door that enough love will not open; 
no gulf that enough love will not bridge; 
no wall that enough love will not throw down; 

no sin that enough love will not redeem...
It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble;
how hopeless the outlook; how muddled the tangle; how great the mistake.
A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.
If only you could love enough you would be
the happiest and most powerful being in the world.”


Emmet Fox



The River Bends




"If my ship sails from sight,
It doesn't mean my journey ends,
It simply means the river bends."

John Enoch Powell


A Perfect Set of Books




"Whatever we put out, it's coming back to us.
The Universe keeps a perfect set of books."

Marianne Williamson

Life's Challenges


“Life’s challenges are not supposed to paralyze you,
they’re supposed to help you discover who you are.”

Bernice Johnson Reagon


Expectations


"If we're stuck with having expectations,
there's a very good reason to embrace positive ones -
It's often that we create what we anticipate."
Martha Beck

tie it to a goal,
not to people or things.”

Life Has Taught Me

“Life has taught me that respect,

for it's only through sharing that friendships are born.”

Donna A. Favors

Two Choices in Life

‎"There are two primary choices in life:
to accept conditions as they exist,
or accept the responsibility for changing them."

Denis Waitley

The Masterpiece of Life


‎"You want to become aware of your thoughts,
you want to choose your thoughts carefully
and you want to have fun with this,
because you are the masterpiece of your own life.
You are the Michelangelo of your own life.
The David that you are sculpting is you.
And you do it with your thoughts"

Joe Vitale

Take Hold of Life

"Take hold of your own life.
See that the whole existence is celebrating.
These trees are not serious,
these birds are not serious.
The rivers and the oceans are wild,
and everywhere there is fun...
everywhere there is joy and delight.
Watch existence,
listen to the existence and become part of it."
Osho

The Value of Life

"The value of life lies not in the length of days,
but in the use we make of them."

Michel de Montaigne

Play and Enjoy Life

“It is essential to our well-being, and to our lives,
that we play and enjoy life.
Every single day do something that makes your heart sing.”

Marcia Wieder

The Good Life

‎"Let's choose today to quench our thirst for the 'good life'
we think others lead by acknowledging
the good that already exists in our lives.
We can then offer the universe the gift of our grateful hearts."

Sarah Ban Breathnach

The Purpose of Life

“The purpose of life is to live it,
to taste experience to the utmost,
to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”

Eleanor Roosevelt

The Measure of a Life


"The measure of a life, after all,
is not its duration, but its donation."

Corrie Ten Boom
