Set Free

they change the world into words.

Reality

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like. 

~ Lao Tzu

The best life is lived in reality. 

Better Things to Come

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People changes so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you can appreciate when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. 

~ Marilyn Monroe

Trust Your Inner Voice. 

Slower Life

You can’t do traditional work at a modern pace. Traditional work has traditional rhythms. You need calm. You can be busy, but you must remain calm.

The pace of life marches on. 

Tell The Truth

Our lives begin to end the day we become 

silent about things that matter.

Real Things

The real things haven’t changed. It is still best to be honest and truthful, to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong. 

~ Laura Ingalls Wilder 

Search to find and make the best choices. 

Choose Your Life

Destiny is not a matter of chance; it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

Each step leads to your destiny. 

Live Right

You cannot change what you are, only what you do.

Surrender

Often times, the greatest peace comes of surrender. 

~ Richard Paul Evans

Action To Achievement

Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement. 

~ Golda Meir 

Build on the good. 

Beat of the Drum

Without music, life would be a mistake.

No Fear

Be still and calm, don’t fear your past but use it for our future! 

~ Nitesh Nishad

Learn from the past to live happily in the moment. 

Tao

Rushing into action, you fail.

Trying to grasp things, you lose them.

Forcing a project to completion, you ruin what was almost ripe.

Therefore, the Master takes action by letting letting things take their course.

He remains as calm at the end as at the beginning.

He has nothing, thus nothing to lose.

What he desires is non-desire; what he learns is to unlearn.

He simply reminds people of who they have always been.

He cares about nothing but the Tao.

Thus he can care for all things.

~ Lao Tzu

Walk the path to the peace.

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty. 

~ Maya Angelou 

The only constant is that everything changes. 

Create Space

Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge. 

~ Eckhart Tolle

Change is a good thing. 

Change is Good

Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. 

Today I am wise, so I am changing myself. 

~ Rumi 

To change is to grow. Growth is good. 

Stay Close

Keep your best wishes, close to your heart and 

watch what happens. 

~ Tony DeLiso 

Dreams and wishes have great power to shape the future. 

So What

Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years when they could just say, So what. That’s one of my favorite things to say, So what. 

~ Andy Warhol 

Pick your battles. 

Happy Sad: it's a balance

Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity. 

~ Carl Jung 

I know sadness, so I may know happiness. 

Dream of the possibilities

I love those who yearn for the impossible.

Once upon a time, there were no planes. 

Today, humans can fly.

it goes on.
