In the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.
Happiness is a skill,
emotional balance is a skill,
compassion and altruism are skills,
and like any skill they need to be developed.
That's what education is about.

The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.
Of course life is bizarre. The more bizarre it gets, the more interesting it is. The only way to approach it is to make yourself some popcorn and enjoy the show.
Be confident, cheerful and contented. The mind can
produce any degree of contentment and peace. To generate these, no other
agency or help is required.
Mirth
is like a flash of lightning that breaks through a gloom of clouds, and
glitters for a moment: cheerfulness keeps up a kind of day-light in the mind.
The
cheerful live longest in years, and afterwards in our regards. Cheerfulness is
the off-shoot of goodness.
Cheerfulness
is the best promoter of health and is as friendly to the mind as to the body.
The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.
