What I Remind Myself

Peace of mind is rooted in affection and compassion.

When I had my house burned down, I gained an unobstructed view of the moonlit sky.

Drops of water, one by one, can fill a giant pot.

To overcome fear, use our motivation and imagination.

Great love and great achievement involves great risk.

Remain in the simplicity of the present moment.

My brain and heart are temples; my philosophy is kindness.

Tame your inner mind - and the outer enemy cannot harm you.

The trouble is that you think you have time.

Thoughts become words; words become behaviours; behaviours become
habits; habits become values; and values become destiny.

A single disappointment may instead herald the beginning of a fulfilling adventure.

Remember the principles that will help the hearth fires glow brighter.

True love rises above mere attachment.

Learn to be secretly happy within your heart in spite of whatever
circumstances. Our inherent personal happiness does not have to depend on others - only
ourselves.

You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf.

Try to speak, occasionally, a few words with quietude and sincerity.

The best relationship is one where your love for each other exceeds
your need for each other.

In the hope of reaching the moon, men fail to see the flowers that
bloom beneath their feet.

See things for what they are - and not what they seem to be.
Laugh with abandon on occasion, and allow the light in your heart to shine.

All things change - nothing perishes.
