Life feels lighter when you enjoy it as it comes.

Learn to sit back and observe. Not everything needs a reaction.

Timeless Rewind

Better to be an optimist who gets disappointed than a pessimist who has no hope!

Thoughts in Words

Life becomes lighter when you stop carrying what's not yours to hold.

Don't carry your mistakes around with you. Instead, place them under your feet and use them as stepping stones to rise above them.

The Meaning of Life

Sometimes you have to let go of the picture of what you thought it would be like and learn to find joy in the story you are actually living.

The less you respond to negativity the more peaceful your life becomes.

Be as happy as a seagull with a french fry. :)

Lighten up. Just enjoy life, smile more, laugh more and don't get so worked up about things.

Thank you for not feeding us bread. Bread makes us ill, as it does not contain the right nutrition or calories that we need to keep warm in the winter. Rotting bread pollutes our water and causes nasty surface algae, which kills our fish and gives us diseases. It also makes our water smell.

We do like: cut seedless grapes, cooked rice, birdseed, peas, corn, oats and chopped lettuce.

Going for daily walks is a great way to get out of your head and into your body.

Walking helps your brain make sense of what you're going through. Walk after a fight. Walk when your mind is spinning. Walk when you need to remember who you are. Your body knows what to do. Just walk. - Dr. Nicole Lepera

Tiny Buddha

I got breakfast! You got coffee?  :)

Biodiversity can't be maintained by protecting a few species in a zoo, or by preserving greenbelts or national parks. To function properly, nature needs more room than that.
