1 Serenity & Zen

13 One moment can change a day, one day can change a life and one life can change the world. - Gautama Buddha

14 To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. - Thich Nhat Hanh

19 Each morning, when you open your eyes, think only 3 things: Thank you, thank you & thank you. Then, set out to make the best use of the gift of this day that you can. - Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

20 Many of our problems stem from attitudes like putting ourselves 1st at all costs. - The Dalai Lama

21 The less you respond to negative people, the more peaceful your life will become. - Buddha

22 Freedom is not given to us by anyone; we have to cultivate it ourselves. It is a daily practice. - Thich Nhat Hanh
