At the bottom of every person's dependency, there is always pain, Discovering the pain and healing it is an essential step in ending dependency.

The Zen of doing anything is doing it with a particular concentration of mind, a calmness and simplicity of mind, that brings the experience of enlightenment and, through that experience, happiness.

Most of the time, we respond to life without taking a moment

Not only is the Universe aware of us, but it also communicates with us. We, in turn, are constantly in communication with the Universe through our words, thoughts, and actions. The Universe responds with events. Events are the language of the Universe. The most obvious of those events are what we call coincidence.

If you examine your motive for doing anything, you'll soon discover that your reason is that you believe it will make you happy.

Although you may have never sat down and defined what your philosophy is, it is fully operative and working in your life at all times. It deals with what you believe about the world in which you live, about its people and events, about how you affect them.

Happiness comes from our response to the conditions of our lives.
