This seems to be the central dilemma of human life--that it is easier to desire what is over there than to appreciate what is right here.

"This seems to be the central dilemma of human life--that it is easier to desire what is over there than to appreciate what is right here.

Your spirit or your soul--your original unconditioned consciousness--exists only in you, so going elsewhere can never give you access to your essential nature, to who you really are."

- Byron Brown

You are here to be you.

"You are here to be you. And you are an expression of it all. Can you notice that in everything you see?"

- Matt Kahn

Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”
