Faith is the ability not to panic.
If you worry, you didn't pray. If you pray, you don't worry.
As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home every day.
Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.
Do the math. Count your blessings.
God wants spiritual fruits, not religion nuts.
Dear God: I have a problem. It's me.
Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted.
Laugh every day, it's like inner jogging.
The most important things in your home are the people.
Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional.
There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
...A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
He who dies with the most toys is, nonetheless, still dead.
We do not remember days, but moments. Life moves too fast, so enjoy your precious moments.
Nothing is real to you until you experience it, otherwise it's just hearsay.
It's all right to sit on your pity pot every now and then. Just be sure to flush when you're done.
Surviving and living your life successfully requires courage.. The goals and dreams you're seeking require courage and risk-taking. Learn from the turtle, it only makes progress when it sticks out its neck.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

About YOUR life.
What about your life? Is it the one you dreamed off? Have your dreams been fulfilled? Or, are you suffering, complaining, feeling miserable?
Let's see what could we do to change the grief in joy. First of all we need to be sure that, what we are longing for, is the real thing we want and then we have to focus on getting it. But how?
We have to clarify our thoughts about ourselves and our needs to be happy. Almost all the time we are thinking about the past, complaining and feeling guilty, or the future, worrying and dreaming of the "marvelous things to come", and, what about the PRESENT? Are you aware that the present is the only time we have? The past is gone, the future has not come yet so, where are we?
All spiritual traditions, New Age movements, etc. talk about this: To live in the present and, doing so we will be out of conflicts, because we put ourselves in the hands of something much bigger than us, LIFE itself and we flow with it.
Of course it is easy to say and difficult to do but realizing that is the first step to freedom of misery and into awareness.
Live in the present, look for stillness and be happy!

About Life.
Sooner or later a person begins to notice that everything that happens to him is perfect, relates directly to who he is, had to happen, was meant to happen, plays its little role in fulfilling his destiny.
When he encounters difficulty, it no longer occurs to him to complain-he has learned to expect nothing, has learned that loss and frustration are a part of life, and come at their proper time-instead he asks himself, why is this happening?...by which he means,
what can I learn from this, how will it strengthen me, make me more aware? He lets himself be strengthened, lets himself grow, just as he lets himself relax and enjoy (and grow) when life is gentle to him.
Strengthened by this simple notion, simple awareness, that life is perfect, that all things come at the proper moment and that he is always the perfect person for the situation he finds himself in, a person begins to feel more and more in tune with his inner nature, begins to find it easier and easier to do what he knows is right. All chance events appear to him to be intended, all intentional actions he clearly perceives as part of the workings of Chance. Anxiety seldom troubles him; he knows his death will come at its proper moment, he knows his actions are right and therefore whatever comes to pass as a result of them will be what is meant to happen. When he does feel anxiety, he realizes it is because of that thing he's been meaning to do but hasn't done, some unfulfilled relationship he's been aware of but...He perceives the anxiety as a message that he'll have to stop hesitating if he wants to stay high... He knows that he is out of tune because he's let himself get out of tune, and because he knows he can, he begins to take action. He enjoys his high life; does not enjoy anxiety; so he stops hesitating and does what he has to do.
He does not live in a state of bliss, though perhaps he feels himself moving toward one-or toward something, he doesn´t know what it is but it is the way he has to go, the journey towards it is the only life he enjoys. It is hard; it is exciting; it is satisfying, lonely, joyous, frustrating, puzzling, enlightening, real; it is his life, that's all.
He accepts it.
