Some quote which taken from Tuesday with morrie.. meaningful for me in coping with some stuff in life and wish to share.
Devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning. There’s nothing in there about a salary.
If you’re trying to show off for people at the top forget it. They will look down at you anyway. And if you’re trying to show off for the people at the bottom, forget it. They will only envy you. Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone.
When I give my time, when I can make someone smile after they were feeling sad, it’s as close to healthy as I ever feel.
Do the kind of things that come from the heart. When you do, you won’t be dissatisfied, you won’t be envious, you won’t be longing for somebody else’s things. On the contrary, you’ll be overwhelmed with what comes back.
Love is when you are concerned about someone else’s situation as you are about your own.
Death ends a life but not a relationship. A long as we can love each other, and remember the feeling of love we had, we can die withoutever really going away. All the love you created is still there. You live on—in the hearts of everyone you have touched and nurtured while you were here.
Everyone wants to be no. 1. But what is wrong being no. 2?
There is no point in keeping vengeance or stubbornness. Pride Vanity. Why do we do the things we do?
