Friday Filosophy #2016-21

/in /by

This weekend is a special one: Memorial Day. This is the day to remember all of the men and women who have died in the service of our country. They gave everything to allow us to enjoy our freedom. I am an immigrant to this country. I am thankful to be a citizen of this country.  For this Friday Filosophy #2016-21, I want to focus on this idea of country.

 

May Heaven be propitious, and smile on the cause of my country.

As I am late this week, my daughter is teasing me that I want it to be Friday already.

Our Friday Filosophy is aimed at inspiring people to stop and reflect on the subject of the week. To allow you to think about your situation and be inspired to grow as a person and as a professional.   With that in mind this week, in our Friday Filosophy #2016-14, we focus on personal growth.  

 

When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.

In our struggle for freedom, truth is the only weapon we possess.

The Dalai Lama

 

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Mark Twain

 

A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.

Albert Einstein

 

Holding onto anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.

Buddha

 

Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.

Eckhart Tolle

 

There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.

What we fear of doing most is usually what we most need to do.
