You, yourself

You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection. - The Buddha

meaning of life

Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it.
- Buddha


I often ponder, i am sure, like many of you out there. "What is the meaning of life". Just when I think I have an answer i am at most comfort with, I am presented with a another angle. The above quote is another angle for me. 
enjoy.

Ownership

"We do not possess our home, our children, or even our own body. They are only given to us for a short while to treat with care and respect." - The Buddha

Ownership is the biggest illusion of all, yet so many of us spend so much time and energy trying to own everything around us.

Judgement

" A day spent judging another is a painful day. A day spent judging yourself is a painful day. You don't have to believe your judgments: they're simply an old habit." - The Buddha
