HAPPINESS QUOTE FROM DALAI LAMA

" I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace."

Dalai Lama

A Poem on Sucess

SUCCESS
by Jane Perry


Think of the days you have lost to defeat.
They are as dead leaves on a plant. Snip them.
The roots are alive awaiting the water
from your hand that growth will emerge,
for life must flow through you, not to you.

Remember when young how each day was adventure?
The sun never rose soon enough and why did it set?
Then one morning it rose too soon and set too late.
You were adult, 'growp up', but in ways regressed.

A Successful Man .... Albert Eninstein

A Successful Man is he who receives a great deal from his fellowmen, usually incomparably more than corresponds to his service to them. The value of a man, however, should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.
    
                                                                          ALBERT EINSTEIN


...be successful simplify and create abundance...
