"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die, so, let us all be thankful."
Buddha
"Meditate. Live purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery. Like the moon, come out from behind the clouds. Shine."

Buddha
"You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection."

"1. Abstain from taking life, 2. Abstain from taking that which is not given, 3. Abstain from misconduct done in lust, 4. Abstain from lying, 5. Abstain from all forms of intoxication."
The Five Precepts of Buddhism. I’m doing quite well with #1-4. But #5 needs a little bit of work. So how’s about we discuss it over a drink?
"No matter what one does, whether one’s deeds serve virtue or vice, nothing lacks importance. All actions bear a kind of fruit."
Buddha
"The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly."
Buddha (sez to just BE).
