Life goes by rapidly. Don't delay. Don't put it off. Don't wait until you have some spare time. Don't wait until the time's 'right'.
If you want those around you to act in a more loving and conscious manner, act in a way that helps them to do so.
I have everything I need to enjoy my here and now - unless I am letting my consciousness be dominated by demands and expectations based on the dead past or the imagined future.
The only real problem in your life is how you're using your mind.
Everyone and everything around you is your teacher.
Happiness does not lie in getting people and things outside of you lined up exactly to suit your desires.
Acceptance doesn't mean that you've resigned yourself to live the rest of your life with a particular person, or in a particular situation. It just means that you won't cause yourself emotional discomfort because of the way things are in this moment.
Happiness is experienced when your life gives you what you are willing to accept.
By tuning in to your minute-to-minute stream of consciousness, you discover the addictions that make you worried, anxious, resentful, uptight, afraid, angry, bored, etc. You thus use every uncomfortable emotion as an opportunity for consciousness growth. Even though you may still be feeling emotional and uptight, you begin to get at the roots of your ups and downs - your brief bits of pleasure and your long periods of unhappiness.
Life is warning you to get rid of an addiction every time you are emotionally uncomfortable in any way.
