Todays Reminder: If we're not willing to explore bad ideas, we risk not ever getting to the good idea.\

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

When you have a peaceful and tamed mind, life is more pleasant for your friends, spouse, parents, children, and acquaintances; your home is quiet, and all who live there enjoy an excellent sense of relaxation. Upon entering your house, others feel a sense of happiness.

@JennaGuillaume She looks / looked fine in the 1st pic the way she is - I get some people are into plastic surgery and it can help with appearance, but it should fix bad stuff + enhance already existing natural features, not completely erase them! #unrealisticexpectations #beautifuljustasyouare

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

In my experience, what we need is a calm mind and warm-heartedness provides a basis for that. That's how we make ourselves happy as individuals in families, local communities and nations. If we can train those who are young today in these qualities we’ll create a happier world.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Education today needs to include principles such as compassion and non-violence. What’s more, since we are missing something if we are physically fit, but full of anger and anxiety, we need to learn about emotional hygiene, tackling destructive emotions to find peace of mind.

Thought for the day:

If you could have/experience just ONE emotion, choose EMPATHY.

With empathy comes love, peace, understanding, curiosity, insight, compassion, respect and accountability,for you and others; and is - the gateway emotion to every other success in life. 👍🏾

YES, WE DO + it *MUST* be legislated/guaranteed & stated clearly in people's employment contracts , else we will work to death/never have time off. Fun fact' WFH, flexible arrangements & mandatory time off actually increases productivity + happy, healthy, employees vs. not! 👍🏾

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

The real destroyer of our peace of mind isn’t an external weapon or enemy, but our own destructive emotions. Neither our friends nor even the Buddha provide an opportunity to practice patience in the way that a hostile person does. And in so doing, an enemy can become our teacher

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

You are human beings, I'm a human being; you want a happy life, and I want a happy life. But I think that aim will not be fulfilled only on the basis of material values; what we all want is affection and what we all need is to be more warm-hearted.

Opinion is really the lowest form of human https://t.co/qAQSARmKl7 requires no accountability, no understanding.The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos & live in another’s https://t.co/PFzWNWGodg requires profound purpose larger than self

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

A deep awareness of the goodness of human beings, that they are essentially kind, helpful, and gentle, can give us courage and hope. On a personal level too, such a vision of our basic nature can help promote a greater sense of well-being and connectedness with others.
