When was the last time you spent a quiet moment just doing nothing - just sitting and looking at the sea, or watching the wind blowing the tree limbs, or waves rippling on a pond, a flickering candle or children playing in the park?

Life is not always easy. And that is a major reason why it is so precious. Many of life's best rewards are possible only because you must work your way through difficult challenges to get to them. If everything in life were easy, there would be no opportunity for real fulfillment.

Patience expands your options. If you insist on immediate gratification, your choices are severely limited.

Success in any endeavor depends on the degree to which it is an expression of your true self.

Even in the most difficult situation there is always, somehow, a way to triumph

You have created your fears. And you can choose to lay them to rest. You have created your dreams. And you can choose to bring them fully to life.

Feelings are determined by how one chooses to respond to various situations and events.
