A single step

As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.

Henry David Thoreau, 1817-1862
American Author, Poet and Naturalist

Make peace

“To have peace, give peace.
To be happy, make happy.
To feel loved, love.

This is very simple and is a part of all the world’s inspired teachings. But it cannot be understood by a mind that refuses to pause.”

Hugh Prather
American Author and Counselor

Reciprocity

Great words, especially in these times of needs when news on TV is full of stories of charity organizations working overtime to assist the needy.

“Whenever you feel ‘short’ or in ‘need’ of something, give what you want first and it will come back in buckets. That is true for money, a smile, love and friendship. I know it is often the last thing a person may want to do, but it has always worked for me. I just trust that the principle of reciprocity is true, and I give what I want.”

Robert T. Kiyosaki
American Author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad

Who is knocking?

“What is opportunity, and when does it knock? It never knocks. You can wait a whole lifetime, listening, hoping and you will hear no knocking. None at all. You are opportunity, and you must knock on the door leading to your destiny.”

Maxwell Maltz, 1899-1975
American Surgeon and Author

Big sorrows

My heart is so small
it’s almost invisible.
How can You place such big sorrows in it?
“Look,” He answered,
“your eyes are even smaller,
yet they behold the world.”

Jalal ad-Din Rumi, 1207-1273
Beloved Persian Poet
