Dalai Lama - Compassion towards my enemy
"The compassion we feel normally is biased and mixed with attachment. Genuine compassion flows towards all living beings, particularly your enemies. If I try to develop compassion towards my enemy, it may not benefit him directly, he may not even be aware of it. But it will immediately benefit me by calming my mind. On the other hand, if I dwell on how awful everything is, I immediately lose my peace of mind." ~ Dalai Lama

60 Life Lessons That Everyone Should Know About
1.Life is like a party. You invite a lot of people; some go, some join you, some laugh with you, some didn’t come. But in the end, after the fun, there would be a few who would clean up the mess with you. And most of the time, those were the uninvited ones.
2.Life is like an ocean. It can be calm and still or rough and rigid. But in the end it’s always beautiful.
3.Fall in love when you’re ready, not when you’re lonely.
4.The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
5.The quickest way to find love is to give love.

7.When you are content to be simply yourself and don’t compare or compete, everybody will respect you.
8.When you are content to be simply yourself and don’t compare or compete, everybody will respect you.
9.If you want to live a happy life, tie yourself to your goals, not to people or things.
10.Ignore all hatred and criticism. Live for what you create, and die protecting it.
11.Cherish your youth. You will never be any younger than you are at this very moment.

15.Most of our everyday problems in life arise for one of two reasons: 1) We act without thinking. 2) We keep thinking without acting.
16.If you love someone, tell them. Forget about the rules or the fear of looking ridiculous. What is really ridiculous is passing up on an opportunity to tell someone that your heart is invested in them.
17.It’s not what you achieve in life that defines you; it’s what you overcome to achieve it.
18.Don’t choose the one who is beautiful to the world, choose the one who makes your world beautiful.

21.Don’t let your ears witness what your eyes didn’t see, or let your mouth speak what your heart doesn’t feel.

23.Part of being wise is knowing what to overlook.
24.Don’t criticize anybody until you take a look in the mirror and realize all the imperfections you have.

26.A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

37.Give yourself time to be upset, it will help you heal.

Quote by ~ Bob Marley
"Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life."

Quote ~ Sharon Salzberg
"It doesn't matter how long we may have been stuck in a sense of our limitations. If we go into a darkened room and turn on the light, it doesn't matter if the room has been dark for a day, a week, or ten thousand years -- we turn on the light and it is illuminated. Once we control our capacity for love and happiness, the light has been turned on."

Quote ~Henry Ford
"Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though sometimes it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward." - Henry Ford
