Anger is not wrong. 

Acting in anger though will always result in wrong actions. 

The more gratitude we show, the less depression we feel. 

The more gratitude we experience, the less anxious we feel. 

The more gratitude we have, the less torment we endure. 

Life is about suffering, but it is not about hurting. Suffering is what we go through. Hurting is how we see and react to the suffering.  

Struggles are the strongest just before the biggest breakthroughs. 

Control is always a mirage, something we create when we lack confidence. 

Certainty is an illusion, some we manufacture in order to block out reality. 

Work hard for who you are, not for who you work for.

Work hard for what you are, not what you are working for. 

Sometimes, forging your own path looks like pride but it is actually self-actualization. 

 

 

Happy Birthday, Gero! 

Mediocrity is passive. 

Greatness is active. 

Mediocrity is passive-aggressive. 

Greatness is just aggressive. 

Fearing change is what stops most people. 

Fearing staying the same is what should motivate most people. 

When you want to do something else specifically, or anything else generally, but still do the action for another, that is the beginning of becoming unselfish. Helping someone do something that only benefits them and not you is how we let go of selfishness. When your own desire gets put aside for the benefit of another, that is anti-selfish. 

Sacrifice always hurts, or it is not sacrifice. 

Devotion, Loyalty, and Love always require sacrifice. 

 

Happy Anniversary Meu Amor, thank YOU for Your Sacrifice

….through your devotion, loyalty, and love.
