  • True joy is being in harmony with life exactly as it is

  • Some people seek fun to escape because they are afraid of difficult thoughts

  • Do your best and choose not to suffer

  • Happiness starts with a conscious choice

  • Choose not to suffer. Move positively forward

  • Happiness is equal to or greater than your perception of the events of your life minus your expectations of how life should behave

  • You feel happy when life meets your expectations

  • Suffering has no benefit whatsoever

  • You are the observer

  • It's all just a game. So play live, learn, and have fun

  • The price you pay for living in your fears is almost always worst than the price you'd pay to face your fear

  • There isn't a single day to be living in fear

  • Live true to yourself regardless of other people's labels

  • Life events always meet the expectations of a wise mind that knows how life really behaves

  • Choose to believe in the side that makes you happy

  • Living involves a combination of doing and being. We are doing too much and not being enough

  • The gravity of the battle means nothing to those at peace

  • Love everything and everyone unconditionally

  • Love lasts forever and never goes away

  • If someone makes you feel bad about yourself, let them know, give them 3 chances and if they don't change, leave

  • You don't own anything
