I believe life is an education meant to teach us the need to be better people. And I believe this learning often takes place through trial and error which may mean being an awful person at times before clearly seeing and grasping the necessity to i...
Your tongue tends to say more about you when it blabs about other people.
If one is content to freely speak trash about another, it is probably more correct to judge them as the one of ill repute and refuse the load of garbage they offer you.
Zahvalnost ne menja pejzaž oko nas. Ona samo pere prozor kroz koji ga posmatramo, pa jasno vidimo boje.
I can and will improve the world. I will smile, show kindness, and be grateful. I refuse to be unhappy.
My pain builds like storm clouds―massive, dark, and heavy with teardrops. Moisture falls torrential as if my world is a violent, eternal downpour; however, at long last the source runs dry and the bitter storm does cease. Blue skies dare to glow wh...
You can't make me be nice. You can't make me be good. You can't make me believe. But your example, your kindness, your patience and love perhaps enough that eventually I may choose to do those things.
They say if you're a better person today than you were yesterday you're well on the road to perfection. So I figure if I'm a real snot today, tomorrow I should make huge progress.
On one hand, you wish for no pain or suffering or misery on anyone. Yet you hope to see your children grow into individuals of compassionate and kind character. And it seems that pain, suffering, and misery adequately humble an individual, cultivatin...
Far more important than the tribulations and heartaches, the thrills, merriment, and pleasures of life is what you learn from it all. It isn't the tunnel we pass through that matters; it's what emerges on the other side.

Happiness must be a jealous pet. When you try seeking yours out, it tends to keep hidden. But as soon as you turn to help a friend find his, your own happiness comes bounding out of the darkness like some crazed animal.
There would be no cloud-nine days without rock-bottom moments left below.
The happiest adults are those who never buried old toys or abandoned imaginary friends.
I can't force your lips to smile, but I can show them how easily mine do.
I don't understand why when I wish for happiness it inevitably rains. However, I do tend to find myself grateful for sunlight once the storm ceases.
Don't seek to be happy; let everyone else chase after that rainbow. Seek to be kind, and you'll find the rainbow follows you.
Happiness branches from the tree of kindness, abounding with the fruit of sweet smiles.
We forget that the sweetest joys are found in the simplest acts: hugs, laughter, quiet observation, basic movements, holding hands, pleasant music, shared stories, a listening ear, an unhurried visit, and selfless service. It is sad we forget a truth...
