About Me

"If you directly confront your suffering, you will be in a better position to appreciate the depth and nature of the problem." - Dalai Lama

"Do not go after the past, nor lose yourself in the future. For the past no longer exists, and the future is not yet here." - Bhaddekaratta Sutra

"Fear is man's greatest enemy, and it manifests itself in forms as diverse as shame, jealousy, anger, insolence, arrogance...What causes fear? Lack of confidence in oneself." - Swami Prajnanpad

"Do not dwell in the past. Do not dream of the future. Concentrate the mind on the present moment." - Buddha

"There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness." - Carl Jung

"There is in the worst of fortune the best of chances for a happy change." - Euripides
