A BEAUTIFUL STRUGGLE

One day you’re at the top, the next day you’re at the bottom competing for scraps. Don’t get too up nor too down about your current status.

You need to take the advice for what it is. Simply as advice. A suggestion. Not a rulebook.

A true human being will learn to roll with the punches and appreciate everything (“good” or “bad”) that life has to offer.

What we consume in this life is very important, shapes our identities, and makes us become who we are today.

When you don’t have something, all you can think about is that one thing that you don’t have.

Money is simply paper. It’s not meant to produce lasting happiness or contentment. That comes from within.

We live in the most advanced stage of life there is to behold. Yet, many of us are not content.

The requests they make may seem inconsequential to us. But, it means the world to them.

It’s the realization that even if I retire with a boatload of money, I’m probably not going to be utterly ecstatic.

The healthier I am, the less of a burden I become on my community. So, happiness and overall well-being is a service to society.

How significant are our problems in the grand scheme of things anyways? Will it move or shake the Earth in some grand form?

I’m more set in my ways. More developed in my understanding. And more realistic about my goals. For better or worse.

This phrase can catch us in the most dreadful moments, and prevent us from cherishing what we already have in the here and now.

We can't control a lot. But, we can control our perspective. We can control our actions.

They take things too seriously. As if the moment will define them for all eternity.

Sometimes, I wish that I could feel that type of bliss in the present moment. That I can somehow hold onto that feeling forever.

We spend our time worrying about the future. And then when that time comes, we realize that it’s not as scary as we thought.

There is so much wonder in this world that can inspire us to take action and work for a better future.

Sometimes, we are too spoiled with riches. Too enamored with getting more comfort and more wealth.

Human beings mainly suffer from two of their greatest faculties: their memory and their imagination.
