“Rest and peace should not be left until you’re deceased. They are two vital life incredients everybody needs and seeks.”

Be genuinely interested in everyone you meet and everyone you meet will be genuinely interested in you

There are essentially two questions in life – a spiritual question and a material question. The spiritual question is ‘Who am I?’ The material question is ‘What am I to do with my life?’ One leads to the other.

Life is the best and only timekeeper.

While you’ll feel compelled to charge forward it’s often a gentle step back that will reveal to you where you and what you truly seek.

Sometimes in life there’s no problem and sometimes in there is no solution. In this space – between these apparent poles – life flows.

You cannot pour more water into a full cup without causing a spillage.

In life, one has a choice to take one of two paths: to wait for some special day-or to celebrate each special day.

All pursuits are pointless and fruitless unless and until love and compassion are found and then are the foundation and destination of all you do.

There’s no alternative to being yourself. Accept it, honour it, value it – and get on with it.

People will ask you the question ‘how is life treating you?’ But my question is ‘how are you treating life?’ On that your happiness rests

You won’t ever build your confidence from a perception of lack. For it grows and evolves from realising who you are and what you already have.

By simple mathematics giving is key to the world you seek to live in. If I take I alone gain. If I give or share then two at least are enriched.

What people say and feel about you when you’ve left a room is precisely your job while you are in it.

We’re merely one tree with various types, shapes and sizes of leaves that all wave differently in the breeze.

The head thinks. The heart knows.

Our abilities and possibilities are at one and the same time very limited and quite infinite dependent on the depth of our relationship to our ‘self’, others and life itself.

Life is too short for long-term grudges.

I must admit, I was born at an early age.

In the first 30 years of your life, you make your habits. For the last 30 years of your life, your habits make you.

No such thing as a life that’s better than yours, no such thing – no such thing.

When you don’t have anything, then you have everything.

Is life not a thousand times too short for us to bore ourselves?

Life is a miracle, and being aware of simply this can already make us very happy.

We love that s why life is full of so many wonderful gifts.
