More Quotes by Ken Keyes Jr.
Happiness is experienced when your life gives you what you are willing to accept.
It is only your mental habits and your selected memories of how you think things are that keep you from moulding things in your life in a more harmonious way.
You add to the suffering in the world when you take offense, just as much as you do when you give offense.
Think of the world as a loving place that is designed to give you everything that you need.
To be right, be willing to admit you are wrong.
There is nothing that you can do to change the present moment. It simply is. You may be able to change the situation one second, one minute, one hour, or one day from now, but there's absolutely nothing you can do to change the way things are right here and now. By not getting irritated you will be more effective in doing what needs to be done to change the situation for the next moment.
As we grow in higher consciousness, we discover that it is more important to be the right person then to find the right person.
The love and peace of higher consciousness flow from just being - and enjoying it all. Anything you do will not be enough unless you feel fulfilled in just being. Usually we are not happy when we find doing whatever it is that we think we have to do. Doing creates expectations that your world and the people around you may or may not fit. The things we do disappear in time. We must learn to appreciate just being alive in the nowness of whatever situation we are in.
People who postpone happiness are like children who try chasing rainbows in an effort to find the pot of gold at the rainbows end...Your life will never be fulfilled until you are happy here and now.
Everyone and everything around you is your teacher.
