Is it possible to live your life from an inner wellspring of love, compassion and
forgiveness? It is if you stay connected to the deeper, wiser, more loving part of
you; if you hold an inner knowing that you are whole, complete and brilliant no
matter what others do or say; and if you take responsibility for your own self-love,
security, and inner peace.
When you become aware of the limitless flow of divine love within you, not only
do you feel joyful and free but you are also eager to share that love with others
because you know that the more you give away, the more you will receive back.

Making a Difference in the World
Do you ever feel as if you can’t possibly make a positive impact on the world
around you? Does it seem as if the necessary changes are just too much for one
person to handle?
Trying to change the world on your own may indeed be overwhelming, but what if
you focused on just doing as much as you can, in whatever small ways you can?
And what if millions of other people did exactly the same thing?
The quotes below share a few inspiring ideas on how to do just that.

Whitman
Strength, Courage and Perseverance
One thing virtually all of us have in common is a lack of belief in our own
capabilities. We have endless goals and dreams that we would love to achieve - but
we doubt our ability to achieve them so we keep holding back. If we do manage to
get up the courage to take action, we quickly realize that the journey is harder than
we anticipated, and give up.
What we often fail to realize is that each of us has a core of immense power,
strength and courage within us. If we would learn to tap into this rich resource
during times of uncertainty and difficulty, we would be able to transcend all
limitations - within and without.
The wise words below offer some encouragement for tapping into your own
reservoir of strength and courage - and continuing to persevere no matter what.
If you are irritated by every rub, how will you be polished? - Rumi
Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn. - Harriet
Beecher Stowe
Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the

rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. - Bruce Lee

not your emotions or moods help or hinder you. - Dan Milman

Intuition, Divine Guidance and Faith
Intuition is one of the most powerful tools we have for joyful, abundant living; yet
many of us have no idea how to use it. Instead we try to use rational, logical
thinking to get us out of jams and make progress on our goals. Unfortunately,
logical thinking can often complicate things when a much simpler solution may be
available to us.
To tap this mysterious power, we only need to get quiet and turn within. When we
stop the frantic, scattered thinking; when we stop panicking and worrying; when we
simply turn within and reconnect with our inner wisdom, all of the answers we will
ever need are right there waiting for us.
It may take a little time to develop a strong faith in our ability to know - but the
more we work with our inner guidance, the more natural it will eventually feel.
“Faith is a knowledge within the heart, Your inner voice, your instinct, knows
beyond the reach of proof.” - Kahlil everything. - Henry Winkler
Gibran
When I do things without any explanation, but just with spontaneity . . . I can be
sure that I am right. - Federico Fellini
We each need to let our intuition guide us, and then be willing to follow that
guidance directly and fearlessly. - Shakti Gawain
Happiness and Gratitude
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
- Mahatma Ghandi
Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning, give
thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks,
the fault lies only in yourself. - Tecumseh
Our real blessings often appear to us in the shape of pains, loses and
disappointments, but let us have patience and we soon shall see them in their proper
figures. - Joseph Addison
If you want to turn your life around, try thankfulness. It will change your life
mightily. - Gerald Good
I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose
which it shall be. – Groucho Marx
Dream and Imagine
By visualizing your goals, you can get your subconscious to work toward making
these mental pictures come true. - Success Magazine
You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. - Mark
Twain

A daydream is a meal at which images are eaten. Some of us are gourmets, some
gourmands, and a good many take their images precooked out of a can and swallow
them down whole, absent-mindedly and with little relish. - W.H. Auden
Inner and Outer Growth
Success is something you attract by the person you become, not something you
pursue. - Jim Rohn
The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. -
Chinese Proverb
Dreams come true. Without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have
them. - John Updike
The golden opportunity you are seeking is in yourself. It is not in your environment,
it is not in luck or chance, or the help of others; it is in yourself alone. - Orison
Swett Marden
Growing in Wisdom
Each of us is born with a certain measure of inner wisdom, but we also grow wiser
as we navigate through our life experiences.
Developing this wisdom can seem like a hard battle at times. We never stop
growing and learning for as long as we live on this earth - and many of us believe
that the journey continues even after we leave here. Thankfully, at any time if we
pause, look back and see how far we’ve come, we will believe wholeheartedly that
the inner growth and awakening we have achieved along the way was worth it.
The more you know about the unknown, the more you actually understand how
little you know. It makes you humble and brings you back to the world of wonders,
miracles and magic. A World in which everything is POSSIBLE! - Thomas Herold
The world has so many lessons to teach you . . . and the secret I've learned to
getting ahead is being open to the lessons. - Oprah
No matter what you do and where you go in your lifetime, you bring your attitude
with you. Your attitude acts as a filter through which you see the world around you,
coloring every nuance, every perception, every experience so that it seems to
underscore your dominant focus. Having a good attitude means your life
experiences will generally seem to be good also. Likewise, having a negative
attitude will ensure that most of your life experiences seem to be negative in tone.
The good news is that you have complete control of your attitude. You can change
your thoughts at any time, and when you do, you will notice that the world around
you usually changes to match the content of those thoughts.
There are only two ways to live your life. “Choose Your Attitude: When you look

Christensen
Be careful the environment you choose for
it will shape you; be careful the friends you “We are all in the gutter, but some of
us are looking at the stars.” - Oscar

Wilde
Clement Stone
You can’t help getting older . . . but you don’t have to get old. - George Burns
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having
new eyes. - Marcel Proust
A great attitude does much more than turn on the lights in our worlds; it seems to
magically connect us to all sorts of serendipitous opportunities that were somehow
absent before the change. - Earl Nightingale
The Power of Thoughts
Once you understand the true power that your thoughts have in shaping your life
experiences, you become much more careful about where you place your focus. No
longer does it seem like a good idea to expose your mind to violent images or
negativity in any form. No longer do you feel the need to complain incessantly,
worry about things you can’t control, or doubt your own capabilities.
Once you have seen evidence of your thoughts at work in your outer life, you may
steadily develop a thrill of excitement like nothing you have experienced before as
you realize that there is nothing that you can’t accomplish.
Little by little, thought by thought, you can begin creating your new vision of the
life you have dreamed of living - and you will be led surely to the realization of it.
Your body is not separate from the body of the universe, because at quantum
mechanical levels there are no well-defined edges. You are like a wiggle, a wave, a
fluctuation, a convolution, a whirlpool, a localised disturbance in the larger
quantum field - the universe - is your extended body. - Deepak Chopra
The Universe is Made of Mind Stuff. - Sir James Jeans
The Kingdom of Heaven is Within You, and whoever knows himself shall find it.
And having found it, you shall know yourselves that You are in God and God is in
