Finish each day

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

As I lay

As I lay in my Jacuzzi, watching my thousand dollar dog poop on my carpet, I finally got it? Life is about clearing up the crap, and while you're doing it, being OK with the fact that you have to do it.

~Inyanla VanZant

Remember this

Remember this: every decision you make stems from what you think you are, and represents the value that you put on yourself.

~A Course in Miracles

We can see

We can see our reflection in water only when we bend down close to it; and the heart of one, too, must lean down to the heart of others; then it will se itself within those hearts.

~Hasidic Proverb

Tomorrow

Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week.

~Spanish proverb

Compassion

Compassion is the chief law of human existence.

~Fyodor Dostoevsky

Discipline

Discipline comes from doing the very thing you keep praying for the discipline to do.

~Inyala VanZant

Your children

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of life searching for their own. They come through you but they are not from you. Although they are with you, they do not belong to you.

~Kahlil Gibran

If it is love

If it is love you are looking for, take a knife and cut off the head of fear.

~Rumi
