The planet does not need more ‘successful people’. 
The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, 
healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of all kinds. 
It needs people to live well in their places. 
It needs people with moral courage willing 
to join the struggle to make the world habitable 
and humane and these qualities have little to do 
with success as our culture is the set.  

~H.H.The Dalai Lama

Hu Ge & Alan 胡歌/阿兰 – One Persistent Thought 一念执著 (Bu Bu Jing Xin OST – Full)

True love stands by each others side on good days 
and stands even closer on bad days. ~Unkown

Never look down on yourself when the whole world turns against you, just look in the mirror then you’ll find out that you’re not alone. That person you see in the mirror is your reflection, it shows that even if everybody ignores you it will always stick around with you. ~Unknown

Most people have 5 senses.
Some people have 6 senses.
But you’re blessed with 7 senses.
An extra sense is NON-SENSE.
That’s why I like YOU!
