The trouble with simple living is that,
though it can be joyful, rich and creative,
it isn't simple.

Iedereen met een relatie zou dat op een gelamineerd briefje in zijn portefeuille moeten steken: niemand is makkelijk om mee te leven, ook ik niet.
We denken allemaal dat onze eigenaardigheden, onze
kleine excentriciteiten schattig en vertederend zijn.
Wel, dat zijn ze
niet.
Ze worden allemaal ergerlijk na verloop van tijd.
Het moeilijkste
in een mensenleven is waarschijnlijk om precies dat van jezelf en de
ander te aanvaarden.
Maar ik weet ondertussen dat het de moeite waard
is.

Anytime you blame others and complain about your situation, you are
choosing to be a victim.
By playing the victim role you are putting
yourself in an ineffective and weak position.
It is virtually impossible
to allow incredible miracles to enter your life when you choose to
remain in this negative mental state.”

Chain of Kindness
Chain of Kindness Movie:
Sometimes a good deed might seem to go unnoticed, but rarely do our good deeds come back to us from the person we give them to. It’s always from our heart that they return. This fun video represents what happens when we do something kind, but it also demonstrates what happens when we plant a seed – no matter how small – good or bad; it blossoms. Make random acts of kindness a natural instinct in your life and you’ll find yourself on the receiving end when you least expect it!

"Look at the word responsibility--"response-
-the
ability to choose your response.
Highly proactive people recognize that
responsibility.
They do not blame circumstances, conditions, or
conditioning for their behavior.
Their behavior is a product of their
own conscious choice, based on values, rather than a product of their
conditions, based on feeling. "
Our
minds can be wonderful, but at the same time they can be our very worst enemy.
They give us so much trouble. Sometimes I wish the mind were like a set of
dentures, which we could take out and leave on our bedside table overnight. At
least we would get a break from its tiring and tiresome
escapades.
We are so at the mercy of our minds that even when we find that the spiritual teachings strike a chord inside us, and move us more than anything we have ever experienced, still we hold back, because of some deep-seated and inexplicable suspicion.
Somewhere along the line, though, we have to stop mistrusting. We have to let go of the suspicion and doubt, which are supposed to protect us but never work, and only end up hurting us even more than what they are supposed to defend us from.
