Small things with love...

"We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love."

When you wake up in the morning...

"When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive, to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love."

Our lives are a miracle with a use-by-date. Don't squander it away, worrying or allowing things to distract you from appreciating the truly valuable experiences and loved ones in your life. Today you live...so live! Revel, and make this day a memorable one filled with love, wisdom, productivity and playfulness!

Why we resist change by Alan Watts

I began reading books by Alan Watts when I was 18 (those books still have pride of place in my personal library). Alan Watts passed away in 1973 but his extraordinary insights live on and now inspire a new generation of individuals wishing to understand their place in the Universe. In this 10 minute video, Watts explores the nature of change and why we resist it. "Every one of us is a whirlpool in the tide of existence."

If you have ever had a kitty fur baby, you will probably be nodding your head and thinkcing "typical"! :D

Time to stop for a moment and appreciate the magic of the journey...

"Most people are so busy trying to get somewhere else, they never stop and appreciate the miracles all around them. They never stop and appreciate the magic of the journey."

True courage...

"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak. Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen."
