Practice the art of patience for nature never acts in haste.
Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.
Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.
I will greet this day with love in my heart. And how will I do this? Henceforth will I look on all things with love and be born again. I will love the sun for it warms my bones; yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit. I will love the light for it shows me the way; yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars. I will welcome happiness as it enlarges my heart; yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul. I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due; yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge.
Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all.
I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.
Do not listen to those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious.
So long as I can laugh, never will I be poor.
You will move in the direction you are facing.
Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit. Your turn will come.
