Our Own Brain, Our Own Heart Is

We Can Make This A More Peaceful Century If We Cherish Non-violence And Concern For Others’ Well-being. It Is Possible. If The Individual Is Happier, His Or Her Family Is Happier; If Families Are Happy, Neighborhoods And Nations Will Be Happy. By Transforming Ourselves We Can Change Our Human Way Of Life And Make This A Century Of Compassion.

Once A Year Go Someplace You've Never Been.

I Believe Compassion To Be One Of The Few Things We Can Practice That Will Bring Immediate And Long-term Happiness To Our Lives. I'm Not Talking About The Short-term Gratification Of Pleasures Like Sex, Drugs Or Gambling (though I'm Not Knocking Them), But Something That Will Bring True And Lasting Happiness. The Kind That Sticks.

Happiness Is Not Something Ready Made. It Comes From Your Own Actions.

When You Think Everything Is Someone Else's Fault, You Will Suffer A Lot. When You Realize That Everything Springs Only From Yourself, You Will Learn Both Peace And Joy.
