I'm not recommending that you think positive thoughts. It's more about experiencing more emotions and feelings that make you feel more connected with the world.

Negative emotions are like unwelcome guests. Just because they show up on our doorstep doesn't mean they have a right to stay.

We can begin to let go of the complications that cause us to suffer by cultivating a simple state of awareness. In this process, tiny steps yield big results, in part because simplicity is nature's default position. Suffering and the complications that fuel it are unnatural; it wastes energy to maintain complexity.

Every present moment will offer itself as a window onto eternity, a doorway to the infinite.

Children offer the finest expressions of openness and flexibility. They play and laugh freely, and find wonder in the smallest things.

Replace fear-based thinking with love-based thinking. Every time you’re making a choice, ask yourself if it’s going to cultivate the experience of unity and love or the experience of separation and stress.

The intention to live as long as possible isn't one of the mind's best intentions, because quantity isn't the same as quality.
