You don’t need a reason to be happy...your desire to be so is sufficient.

Live one day at a time emphasizing ethics rather than rules.

We shouldn't want things and we should be satisfied with no thing. Furthermore, we don't deserve whatever we would like to have in our lives because we think we have been bad, we feel insufficient, or somebody else has convinced us that we're not worthy.

Well, your whole life is like a checkerboard and there's a sense that you get, especially looking back on it, that you begin to realize and gain awareness that there's something else moving all of these pieces around in your life, and that was really true for me right from the very beginning.

Those whose purpose does not match yours are not wrong; they have their mission, and finding their own purposeful way may involve many detours and acts that seem destructive.

Intention is not something you do, but rather a force that exists in the universe as an invisible field of energy, a power that can carry us.

I cannot always control what goes on outside. But I can always control what goes on inside.
