Do no harm to the earth, she is your mother. Being is more important than having. Never promote yourself at another's expense. Hold life sacred; treat it with reverence. Allow each person the dignity of his or her labor. Open your home to the wayfarer. Be ready to receive your deepest dreams; sometimes they are the speech of unblighted conscience. Always make restitutions to the ones you have harmed. Never think less of yourself than you are. Never think that you are more than another.
Arthur Dobrin

No one on the planet will ever have exactly the mix of the people in their lives that you do. No one else has the assignment to touch those particular people with love.

Mary Manin Morrissey

Melody Beattie

Too many of the young have forgotten how to laugh, and too many of the elders have forgotten how to love. Would not our lives be lightened if only we could all learn to laugh more easily at ourselves and to love one another?"
Theodore Hesburgh

To go in the dark with a light is to know the light. To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight and know that the dark, too, blooms and sings, and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.
Wendell Berry

"People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown,
they prefer suffering that is familiar."
Thich Nhat Hanh

The smallest change in perspective can transform a life. What tiny attitude adjustment might turn your world around?
