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

You can challenge yourself to do better & be better while still accepting and loving who you are in this moment.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Because anger and hostility destroy our peace of mind, it is they that are our real enemy. Anger ruins our health; a compassionate attitude restores it. If it were basic human nature to be angry, there’d be no hope, but since it is our nature to be compassionate, there is.

[Brené Brown @BreneBrown]

Everyone wants to be brave.
Very few of us want to feel vulnerable.

There is no courage without uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure. Brave is vulnerable.

Embrace the suck.

The world just wants your authentic truth.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

The ultimate source of a happy life is warmheartedness. Even animals display some sense of compassion. When it comes to human beings, compassion can be combined with intelligence. Through the application of reason, compassion can be extended to all 7 billion human beings.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

In working for the good of humanity I don't think of myself just as a Tibetan or a Buddhist, but as a human being. We have to think of the whole of humanity. Being human is the common ground in our efforts to create a better world, because we all survive in dependence on others.

Above all else, teach your children the importance of being kind.

[Gabby Bernstein @GabbyBernstein]

Make a conscious effort to look for love throughout the day.

Hold steady my friend. These leaps feel like you may fall in the midst of it. You won’t. #TuesdayThoughts #Inspiration

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

If you believe in God you must try to live justly with everyone, according to the golden rule: “Do to others whatever you would have them do to you” (Mt 7,12).

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We won’t bring about peace in the world merely by praying for it; we have to take steps to tackle the violence and corruption that disrupt peace. We can’t expect change if we don’t take action.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

The source of a happy life is within us. Troublemakers in many parts of the world are often quite well-educated, so it is not just education that we need. What we need is to pay attention to inner values.

[Gabby Bernstein @GabbyBernstein]

When you need to calm down...

Breathe in for 5 counts
Hold for 5 counts
Breathe out for 5 counts
Hold for 5 counts

Repeat the cycle 2 more times.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

The first drawback of anger is that it destroys our inner peace; the second is that it distorts our view of reality. If we think about this and come to understand that anger is really unhelpful, that it is only destructive, we can begin to distance ourselves from anger.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

All the positive states of mind such as love, compassion, insight and so on, have the quality that you can enhance their capacity and increase their potential to a limitless degree, if you regularly practice them through training and by developing constant familiarity with them.

We do not choose our race nor our sexual orientation; one person is certainly not better than the other simply for the way they were born. At the root of it all, we are all the same human in the same crazy world. ❤️ #JussieSmollett

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We should practise by showing affection and helping one another. It is a mistake to pursue happiness and to seek to the avoid suffering by deceiving and humiliating other people. We must try to achieve happiness and eliminate suffering by being considerate and good-hearted.
