Unless we stand for something, we shall fall for anything.
I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.
Be still. Just for a moment. Listen to the world around you. Feel your breath coming in and going out. Listen to your thoughts. See the details of your surroundings. Be at peace with being still. In this modern world, activity and movement are the default modes, if not with our bodies then at least with our minds, with our attention. We rush around all day, doing things, talking, emailing, sending and reading messages, clicking from browser tab to the next, one link to the next. We are always on, always connected, always thinking, always talking. There is no time for stillness and sitting in front of a frenetic computer all day, and then in front of the hyperactive television, doesnt count as stillness. This comes at a cost: we lose that time for contemplation, for observing and listening. We lose peace.
If a man watches three football games in a row, he should be declared legally dead.
The era we are living in today is a dream coming true.
The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
