Everything you learn becomes your wealth,
an unmovable wealth; whether you learn it in
a school or in life. Learning something new
is an eternal pleasure and a valuable treasure.
And not everything you learn is taught to you,
but many things you realize you have learned yourself.
~ J. JoyBell C ~
“My friends, love is better than anger.
Hope is better than fear.
Optimism is better than despair.
So let's be loving, hopeful
and optimists. And we will change the world.”
~ Jack Layton ~
Listen with curiosity. Speak with honesty. Act with integrity.
The biggest problem with communication
is that we don't listen to understand.
We listen to respond. When we listen with curiosity,
we do not listen with the intent to respond.
We listen to what is behind the words.
Roy T. Bennett
Does that diminish my own experience,
because someone else is having it worse?
There is always someone with
a worse life than yours.
That doesn't make your life
a road of roses.
~ Elle Kennedy ~
"I will say that today is a beautiful day,
not because of the weather or how beautiful
the sky looks, but because it is a new day full
of opportunities and a chance to start anew."
~ Onipede Ayomide ~
There is something beautiful about all scars,
whatever its nature.
A scar means the pain is over,
that the wound is closed and healed, that it is over.
~ Harry Crews ~
Whatever happens,
in most cases there is a way to go.
Move forward by assessing the facts,
with a vision of the ideal outcome in mind.
Act with kindness, consideration and care.
And if there's still no path,
it's time to forge it.
~ Grace Gibraltar ~
“I choose honesty over deception not because it is pure,
but because the universe always knows,
and I prefer the blessings of the universe over its anger”.
~ Marion Bekoe ~
Don't let the memories of your past
limit the potential of your future.
There are no limits to what you can achieve
on your path through life, except in your mind.
~ Roy T. Bennett ~
