NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 909

 

  • ·       "People who take time to be alone usually have depth, originality, and quiet reserve." - John Miller

    ·       “To become acquainted with one’s brothers and sisters, to know their problems and to learn to love them, is the supreme experience of living.” - Jesus

    ·       To bear trials with a calm mind robs misfortune of its strength and burden.  -Seneca

    ·       “Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.” ~ Confucius

    ·       “Man might fear a great God, but he trusts and loves only a good God.”

    ·       Intelligence is the ability to decide what’s important and doing it. - Maxime Lagacé

    ·       “There is unity in the cosmic universe if you could only discern its workings in actuality. The real universe is friendly to every child of the eternal God.” - The Teachings of Jesus

    ·       A man is not called wise because he talks and talks again; but if he is peaceful, loving and fearless then he is in truth called wise. – Buddha

    ·       Training is needed in order to love properly; and to be able to give happiness and joy, you must practice ‘deep looking’ directed toward the other person you love. Because if you do not understand this person, you cannot love properly. Understanding is the essence of love. If you cannot understand, you cannot love. That is the message of the Buddha.” - Thich Nhat Hanh

    ·       “We really have to understand the person we want to love. If our love is only a will to possess, it is not love. If we only think of ourselves, if we know only our own needs and ignore the needs of the other person, we cannot love.” - Thich Nhat Hanh
