I like them because they remind us that we always have choices, even if we don’t like what’s going on in the world.
Peace is the result of retraining your mind to process life as it is, rather than as you think it should be.

I love these!!!
…Peace is the result of retraining your mind to process life as it is, rather than as you think it should be~Wayne Dyer, Trump should give this a try!
each one is perfect and I agree with all of them and have been practicing on seeing the good things around me and talking to God and thanking him. when bad things are happening, I am looking for the good things. like having the legs and strength to follow the dog when he was sick, the ability to walk the dog, the ability to find an answer to the potty not working. I thank God for the things I do have while waiting for the bad to end
These are great! I always enjoy visiting here because each day brings joy, happiness and positivity. I especially like the Ram Dass quote. “I wold like my life to be a statement of love and compassion, and where it isn’t, that’s where my work lies. Thank you for this post.
Excellent quotes. Thank you.
Very good and uplifting!
Reaction is key, isn’t it?
This collection of quotes is such a great idea. You’re giving me thoughts to do the same!
Good thoughts make you happier for sure!
I am with Shug on this one – my very favorite is, “I would like my life to be a statement of love and compassion — and where it isn’t, that’s where my work lies.”

And add Christianity!
I think the first quote is my favorite, and the last one is the most ponderable.
