Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me."
-Ann Landers
A man's own envy is foe enough to forge his ruin,
Even though he has no other enemies.
He who begrudges another's bounty
Will behold the death of his naked and starving kindred.
Fortune's Goddess, intolerant of men who cannot tolerate other's success,
Introduces them to her sister Misfortune and goes away.
-Tirukkural 17: 165-167

Those who try Zen meditation even once wipe away beginningless crimes. Where are all the dark paths then? The Pure Land itself is near.
Those who hear this truth even once and listen with a grateful heart, treasuring it, revering it, gain blessings without end.

I like this.
But when words start coming outta mouths, that think they know my business, to me is mental abuse. Thinking, saying & doing are all actions. What do the actions really mean?
Somehow in my warped little head LOL I can not process some evil, evil people. And possibly but doubt i take it the wrong way
I saw the tracks of angels in the earth,
The beauty of heaven walking by itself on the world.

When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
-Mahatma Gandhi
GROWTH
"As long as we are persistent in our pursuit of our deepest destiny, we will continue to grow. We cannot choose the day or time when we will fully bloom. It happens in its own time." -- Denis Waitley
"Let a person rejoice when he is confronted with obstacles, for it means that he has reached the end of some particular line of indifference or folly, and is now called upon to summon up all his energy and intelligence in order to extricate himself, and to find a better way; that the powers within him are crying out for greater freedom, for enlarged exercise and scope." -- James Allen
"It is the Law that any difficulties that can come to you at any time, no matter what they are, must be exactly what you need most at the moment, to enable you to take the next step forward by overcoming them. The only real misfortune, the only real tragedy, comes when we suffer without learning the lesson." -- Emmet Fox
"The real tragedy is the tragedy of the man who never in his life braces himself for his one supreme effort, who never stretches to his full capacity, never stands up to his full stature." -- Arnold Bennett
