If you look to others for fulfillment, you will never truly be fulfilled. If your happiness depends on money, you will never be happy with yourself. Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you. --Lao Tzu Not all those who wander are lost
--J. R. R. Tolkien One’s destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things. --Henry Miller When one pours out one’s heart, one feels lighter.
--Yiddish proverb Daring as it is to investigate the unknown, even more so is it to question the known. --Kaspar I like to share quotes that I find meaningful, humorous, or thought-provoking. Here’s one for March:
And the trouble is, if you don’t risk anything, you risk even more. --Erica Jong This quote strikes me as so true. It seems timely based on how often this month I’ve found myself discussing change. We all experience fear sometimes; fear of change, fear of failure, and fear of loss often keep us from acting or trying things that can lead to happiness, improved well-being, or a sense of success. Sometimes the only thing holding us back is our own fear of taking a risk. Risks can be scary, but what might you be missing by playing it safe or holding back? |
