See, you don’t have to think about doing the right thing. If you’re for the right thing, then you do it without thinking. - Maya Angelou
The man who preserves his selfhood ever calm and unshaken by the storms of existence - not a leaf, as it were, astir on the tree, not a ripple upon the surface of the shining pool - his, in the mind of the unlettered sage, is the ideal attitude and conduct of life ... Silence is the cornerstone of character. - Charles Alexander Eastman
Never look back and regret, look back and smile at what you have learned. - Michelle C Ustaszeski
Your greatness is measured by your kindness; your education and intellect by your modesty; your ignorance is betrayed by your suspicions and prejudices, and your real caliber is measured by the consideration and tolerance you have for others. ~William J. H. Boetcker
The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.
To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch... to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!
Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams. - Ashley Smith
Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.
Don't rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can't love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different. ~Stacey Charter
Joyfulness keeps the heart and face young. A good laugh makes us better friends with ourselves and everybody around us. ~ Orison Swett Marden ~
