Gratitude is not a passive response to something we have been given.

Gratitude arises from paying attention, from being awake in the presence of everything that lives within and without us. -David Whyte

In the creation of everything that exists, thought always comes first. Everything that you see around you was once a thought or an idea - a vibrational concept that matured into what you call physical reality. -Abraham Hicks

I looked up the road I was going and back the way I come, and since I wasn't satisfied, I decided to step off the road and cut me a new path. -Annie Johnson

Be the change you wish to see in the world. -Mahatma Gandhi

Go be whomever you want to be, then, do whatever you want to do.

Pursue whatever fascinates you and brings you to life.

Create whatever you want to create and let it be stupendously imperfect, because it's exceedingly likely that nobody will even notice. And that's awesome. -Elizabeth Gilbert

Be excellent to each other. -Bill & Ted

We have the power to affect our health. Our spirit can give us the strength to ward off illness, and can also cause us to heal. The spirit has the power to control the mind and mind controls the body. Remove thoughts of illness and concentrate on the cure. We are not to deny the presence of the illness or the problem. We are simply to deny its power over our divine right to remove it. -Betty J Eadie

Forgive others. Not because they deserve forgiveness,

but because you deserve peace.

-Jonathon Lockwood Huie

For a seed to achieve it's greatest expression, it must come completely undone. The shell cracks, it's insides come out and everything changes. To someone who doesn't understand growth, it would look like complete destruction. -Cynthia Ocelli

Destroy negative thoughts when they first appear. This is when they are the weakest.

-Songide Makwa

Everything changes when you start to emit your own frequency rather than absorbing the frequencies around you, when you start imprinting your intent on the universe rather than receiving an imprint from existence. -Barbara Maciniak

Live life as if everything is rigged in your favor. -Rumi

An outside enemy exists only if there is anger inside. -Buddha

It is impossible to build one's own happiness on the unhappiness of others.

-Daisaku Ikeda

You are only confined by the walls you build yourself. -Andrew Murphy

The soul usually knows what to do to heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind.

-Caroline Myss

Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of that candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. -Buddha

The truth is that it matters not at all what you think of my life--but it matters supremely what you think of your own. Judgement is just another cage we live in so we don't have to feel, know or imagine. Judgement is self-abandonment. You are not here to waste your time deciding whether my life is true or beautiful enough for you. You are here to decide if your life, relationships, and world are true and beautiful enough for you. And if they are not, you must decide if you have the guts, the right--perhaps even the duty--to burn to the ground that which is not true and beautiful enough to get started building what is. -Glennon Doyle
