The best use of life is love. The best expression of love is time. The best time to love is now. ― Rick Warren

When you plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, you don't blame the lettuce. You look for reasons it is not doing well. It may need fertilizer, or more water, or less sun. You never blame the lettuce. Yet if we have problems with our friends or family, we blame the other person. But if we know how to take care of them, they will grow well, like the lettuce. Blaming has no positive effect at all, nor does trying to persuade using reason and arguments. That is my experience. No blame, no reasoning, no argument, just understanding.

We can always choose to perceive things differently. You can focus on what's wrong in your life, or you can focus on what's right.

I will do nothing lightly. When I walk, I will walk heavily. When I fight, I will fight with conviction. When I speak, I will speak strongly. When I feel, I will feel everything. When I love, I will love with everything. - Evan Tanner

Love is not a matter of what happens in life. It's a matter of what's happening in your heart.

---

When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

And now here is my secret, a very simple secret; it is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye.

Be the best of whatever you are.- Martin Luther King, Jr.
