Fulfillment is natural and not to be ashamed of. Ecstasy is a state of the soul transmitted through the body. Union consists of two people opening to the same Being
~ Deepak Chopra
I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.
~ Dalai Lama
Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.
~ Dr. Seuss
Kindness in words creates confidence…Kindness in thinking creates profoundness..Kindness in giving creates love.
~ Lao Tzu
Happiness for a reason is a form of misery because the reason can be taken away from you at any time. To be happy for no reason is the happiness you want to experience.

Do everything with so much love in your heart that you would never want to do it any other way.
~ Yogi Desai
Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.
~ Mark Twain
You, as much as anyone in the universe, deserve your love and respect.
~ Buddha
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
When it comes to love, you need not fall but rather surrender, surrender to the idea that you must love yourself before you can love another. You must absolutely trust yourself before you can absolutely trust another and most importantly you must accept your flaws before you can accept the flaws of another.
