You have to seize your path by the horns, and steer it in the direction you want. The universe won’t do it for you. Nor will your friends or family. Only you can seize your day.

Don’t sit around waiting for it to come to you. Get in the driver’s seat and drive yourself home. - Jeff Brown

“God does not give you more than you can handle.” Really? Did you ask God yourself? Did she confirm your theory? Look, I get that sometimes we say stuff like this because we don’t know what else to say, or because we actually think it helps. We don’t want people to give up. We want them to keep on fighting to stay alive. But, honestly, it doesn’t help. Few survivalist mantras do. Because there is more to life than survival at all costs. There is more to life than armoring up and toughing it out in the heart of our suffering. There is also something to be said for healing our way to wholeness. For meeting each other in our woundedness. For embracing the possibility that our trauma is actually a lot more than we handle. So, next time you feel tempted to tell a trauma survivor, “God does not give you more than you can handle,” try something different. Say this, “Something tragic has happened. You should not have to handle it alone. How can I help you to grieve and to heal?” Remind them that God is a soft place to land. Remind them that God is compassion in human form. - JEFF BROWN

"Whenever we manage to love without exceptions, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven." - Melvana Rumi

When you realize nothing is lacking, the whole world belongs to you. - Lao Tzu

“Everybody has a little bit of the sun and moon in them. Everybody has a little bit of man, woman, and animal in them. Darks and lights in them. Everyone is part of a connected cosmic system. Part earth and sea, wind and fire, with some salt and dust swimming in them. We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside.." ― Suzy Kassem

Hatred is never appeased by hatred in this world. By non -hatred alone is haltered appeased. This is a law eternal. - The Buddha

When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace. - Dalai Lama

Love needs an entry point. If our emotional body is all blocked up with unresolved material, there's no way in. The more we empty the vessel before it comes, the more space love has to flourish. Healing our hears gives love a place to land. - Jeff Brown

Wherever you go, leave a heartprint. - unknown

Life is a miracle, and being aware of simply this can already make us very happy. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Compassion is a verb. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Now is where love breathes - Rumi

It is not realistic to be strong and positive all of the time. Allow yourself to mourn and cry. Bravery is not the absence of fear and pain. It is feeling it all, and pushing through anyway. - Karen Salmansohn

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them, that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like. - Lao Tzu

Listening is where love begins: listening to ourselves and then to our neighbors. - Mr. Fred Rogers

You can't erase what happened to you but you can always decide to put it behind you, under your feet, and rise like the hero you are. - Najwa Zebian

Health does not always come from medicine. Most of the time it comes from peace of mind, peace in the heart, peace in the soul. It comes from laughter and love. - Kelly's Treehouse

“When our mind is calm, it reflects reality accurately, without distortion. Breathing, sitting, and walking with mindfulness calms disturbing mental formations such as anger, fear, and despair, allowing us to see reality more clearly...” - Thich Nhat Hanh

Life will teach you that you can’t control someone’s loyalty. No matter how good you are to them, doesn’t mean they’ll treat you the same. No matter how much they mean to you, doesn’t mean they’ll value you the same. Sometimes the people you love the most, turn out to be the people that you can trust the least. - Spiritual Awakenings ॐ

We all have issues because we all have a story. And no matter how much work you've done on yourself, we all snap back sometimes. So be easy on you. Growth is a dance. Not a light switch. - unknown

7 Universal Truths That Will Change Your Life

"All healing is essentially a release from fear." - Thich Nhat Hanh

When something isn't right for you, your soul rejects it and tries to warn you in many different ways. Always pay attention to how things make you feel and what emotions they bring up to you. These are all messages. If something is not right for you, let it go. - unknown

Sometimes you have to let things to, so there's room for better things to come into your life. - tinybuddha.com

Continue practicing until you see yourself in the cruelest person on Earth, in the child starving, in the political prisoner. Practice until you recognize yourself in everyone in the supermarket, on the street corner, in a concentration camp, on a leaf, in a dewdrop. Meditate until you see yourself in a speck of dust in a distant galaxy. See and listen with the whole of your being.

If you are fully present, the rain of Dharma will water the deepest seeds in your consciousness, and tomorrow, while you are washing the dishes or looking at the blue sky, that seed will spring forth, and love and understanding will appear as a beautiful flower. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Confidence isn't thinking you are better than everyone else, it's realizing that you have no reason to compare yourself to anyone else. - Maryam Hasnaa

When Impermanence, Non-self, and Dependent Co-arising are proclaimed, all those who have long sought false security in ignorance and forgetfulness must awaken, celestial beings as well as human beings.

When a person sees the dazzling truth, he exclaims, ‘We embraced dangerous views for so long, taking the impermanent to be permanent, and believing in the existence of a separate self.

We took suffering to be pleasure and look at the temporary as if it were eternal. We mistook the false for the true. Now the time has come to tear down all the walls of forgetfulness and false views.” - Thích Nhất Hạnh, Old Path White Clouds: Walking in the Footsteps of the Buddha

Don't treat people as bad as they are, treat them as good as you are. - unknown

“Very often in a conflict, we believe the problem is the other person or group. We think it is all their fault and that if they would just stop doing what they are doing or being the way they are, we would have peace and happiness. So we may be motivated by the desire to destroy the other side. We may wish they didn’t exist. But looking deeply, we know that we are not the only ones who have suffered—they have also suffered. When we take time to calm ourselves down and look deeply into the situation, we can see that we are co-responsible, that we have co-created the conflict by our way of thinking, acting, or speaking, either individually or as a group or nation.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh, How to Fight

鏗鏘集：8.31創傷之後

“Purpose is an essential element of you. It is the reason you are on the planet at this particular time in history. Your very existence is wrapped up in the things you are here to fulfill. Whatever you choose for a career path, remember, the struggles along the way are only meant to shape you for your purpose.” ~ Chadwick Boseman

There is a time to rescue another, and a time to turn our attention to ourselves. Years ago, I was confronted with a situation with a friend who had spiraled, yet again, into a drug and homelessness trip. It had happened many times before, and I had always put my life on hold to rescue them. This pattern had deep roots in my survivalist family history. This time, I contacted a spiritual teacher- Ram Dass - and he said the one thing that finally broke the back of this pattern: "The most you can do for all of us, is to become all you are meant to become." Both because of his words, and because of where I was at on my path, I was just ready to listen. And, so, for the first time, I stopped the rescue missions and got back to what called me. Years later, that same person overcame their challenges, and said: "There wasn't a thing you could have done for me, until I decided if I wanted to live, or die. You were wasting your time, and actually keeping me from the abyss I needed to confront in order to make that decision." Simply put, some of us don't want to be here and will inevitably find a way to leave. Others will choose to be here, but not until they are at the very end of their rope. Rescuing may be the perfect thing in one context, and the one thing that enables and perpetuates their suffering in another. Sometimes they need your help, and sometimes they need to be left alone to face the abyss. Sometimes they have a choice to make. Let them make it. - Jeff Brown
