No problem. You are not crazier than you were yesterday. It has always been this way, and you just never noticed.

Mindfulness gives you time. Time gives you choices. Choices, skillfully made, lead to freedom. You don't have to be swept away by your feeling. You can respond with wisdom and kindness rather than habit and reactivity.

No matter how hard you pursue pleasure and success, there are times when you fail. No matter how fast you flee, there are times when pain catches up with you.

Ignorance may be bliss, but it does not lead to liberation.

Pain is inevitable, suffering is not.

The process of becoming who you will be begins first with the total acceptance of who you are.

Each step along the Buddha's path to happiness requires practising mindfulness until it becomes part of your daily life.
