We need less posturing and more genuine charisma.
Charisma was originally a religious term,
meaning "of the spirit" or "inspired."

It's about a sparkle in people that money can't buy.

Quite the contrary, it's when we truly become bright.
We're letting our own light shine.

Through Qigong, one learns to quiet the mind
and allow communion with the One.

The One is everything, and everything is the One.
Each of us is the One, and the One is inside each of us.
Just remember that it's an infinity thing -
the tiniest bit of infinity is still infinite.

need for the approval of others, be careful.

and have given your destiny to others.
An excessive need-for-approval
is a sign of low self-esteem,
and in severe cases, a condition termed co-dependency.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

While the laughter of joy is in

the laughter of amusement

while an expensive monument is one with embroidery.

However carefully we plan our future,
we are always climbing the steps to nowhere.

that we have an intent for our lives,
it is equally crucial to accept in advance

and that is good.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true.

The "stories" we choose to tell about our past
are never what a video camera would have recorded.

while the other brings us joy. I choose joy.

even away from the attentions of those
with whom they are most bonded.

Pay It Forward.
Gift future generations in proportion to your gratitude.
The nature of life is that we pay forward
our biological creation and nurture.

choose to take "pay it forward" farther - much farther.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
The very nature of the world is constant change.
You set a goal and create a plan to achieve it;

based your plan change - they always do.

while adapting your tactics.
Relax and stay flexible in order to reach
your goals and maintain your happiness.

watching QVC with a credit card

Every optimist moves along with progress and hastens it,
while every pessimist would keep the worlds at a standstill.
The consequence of pessimism in the life of a nation
is the same as in the life of the individual.
Pessimism kills the instinct that
urges men to struggle against poverty,
ignorance and crime, and dries up
all the fountains of joy in the world.
- Helen Keller

are the sources of peace and happiness.

In all circumstances I acknowledge this,
IN ALL THINGS AND ALL WAYS, I HAVE CHOICE.

and roadways and others, I do control myself
and my response to all those circumstances. I do indeed.
- Mary Anne Radmacher
