We spend precious hours fearing the inevitable. It would be wise to use that time adoring our families, cherishing our friends and living our lives. #<Author:0x00007f1f069c1400>
CONNECTION
The happiness of one's own heart alone cannot satisfy the soul; one must try to include, as necessary to one's own happiness, the happiness of others. #<Author:0x00007f1f06989be0>
INCLUDING OTHERS

Compassion is a power that we first bestow on ourselves and then give away through our actions—to people, to our planet. When we recognize this, that is when love becomes our legacy. #<Author:0x0000558493572390>
COMPASSION
Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received-only what you have given: a full heart enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage. #<Author:0x0000558493320380>
SERVICE
I have never met a person whose greatest need was anything other than real, unconditional love. You can find it in a simple act of kindness toward someone who needs help. There is no mistaking love…it is the common fiber of life, the flame that heats our soul, energizes our spirit and supplies passion to our lives. #<Author:0x0000558492f44180>
LOVE
I began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. He taught me that if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it at full speed ahead. Embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it and above all become passionate about it. Lukewarm is no good. Hot is no good either. White hot and passionate is the only thing to be. #<Author:0x0000558492c0aa28>
PASSION
The earth will not continue to offer its harvest, except with faithful stewardship. We cannot say we love the land and then take steps to destroy it for use by future generations. #<Author:0x00005584929438f8>
STEWARDSHIP
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved. #<Author:0x00005584928d8710>
CHARACTER
Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen. #<Author:0x0000558491c14650>
CREATIVITY
Don’t be afraid to be ambitious about your goals. Hard work never stops. Neither should your dreams. #<Author:0x00005584914b6480>
AMBITION
The mind is just like a muscle—the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets and the more it can expand. #<Author:0x0000558490bc3e18>
MINDFULNESS
The purpose of training is to tighten up the slack, toughen the body, and polish the spirit. #<Author:0x000055848ebbfab8>
