Being satisfied with what we already have is the key to being alive in a full, unrestricted and inspiring way.  Wake up, become more alert and curious about yourself.  Being who we are rather than trying to change and improve ourselves is all right; just be.

True friendship is such that even after years apart, when you meet again, the friendship is as true as ever.  Your friends’ circumstances may appear to have changed for the worse and even though you may have the means to help him, don’t, unless he asks. This is true friendship.

Listen to people, respond to their needs, do not manipulate them, do not give advice.  If you give advice, do you notice that most people don’t act on it?  And it probably frustrates you that they didn’t, even though you know what’s best for them??

Joy rests on firmness and strength within, manifesting itself outwardly as yielding and gentle.  This joyful mood is infectious and therefore brings success.  Truth and strength must dwell in the heart; gentleness reveals itself with social intercourse.

Quote: Don’t relax, be worried!
