K.T*

When you need me, but do not want me, then I must stay. When you want me, but no longer need me, then I have to go.

If today is the worst day ever, tomorrow has to be better.

In the beginning of life, when we were infants, we need others to survive, right? And at the end of life, when you get old, you need others to survive, right? But here's the secret: in between, we need others as well.

Death ends a life, not a relationship.

If you're always battling against getting older, you're always going to be unhappy, because it will happen anyhow.

Don't cling to things, because everything is impermanent.

The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.

So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.

The culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. And you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesn't work, don't buy it.

If you're trying to show off for people at the top, forget it. They will look down on you anyhow. And if you're trying to show off for people at the bottom, forget it. They will only envy you. Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone.
