Fav Quotes from the Buddha

 The Quieter you become, the better you can Hear.  Be Open to consider everything - but become less Attached to anything.  There is no path to happiness. Happiness is the Path.  You only lose what you Cling to.  Pain is certain, suffering is Optional.  If you shine a Lamp for Someone, it will also brighten up your path.  If you want to Fly, give up everything that Weighs you down.  Love does not need to be Perfect, just True.  The Behaviour of Others is their Own Karma. Not giving a Reaction to Negative People keeps our Distance from them.  Take care of your Thoughts when you are by yourself.  You Are what your think.  Take care of your Words when you are with company.   Right Speech, Right Action.  The only constant thing in Life is Change.  Life is an Echo.  My fav quotes from the Buddha. #yongkevthoughts
