The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart.
Nhat HanhIf love is in our hearts, every thought, word, and deed can bring about a miracle. Because understanding is the very foundation of love, words and actions that emerge from our love are always helpful.
Nhat HanhWhenever anger comes up, take out a mirror and look at yourself. When you are angry, you are not very beautiful.
Nhat HanhIf a child smiles, if an adult smiles, that is very important. If in our daily lives we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. If we really know how to live, what better way to start the day than with a smile? Our smile affirms our awareness and determination to live in peace and joy. The source of a true smile is an awakened mind.
Nhat Hanh
