Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I’ll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I’ve stored away, just for this time in my life. ~Author Unknown

Avoid speaking negative things. If we concentrate on the bad side, we lose sight of the good. When we concentrate on the good. We take on goodness. ~Paramhansa Yogananda
Whatever you do
be gentle with yourself.
You don’t just live
in this world
or your home
or your skin.
You also live
in someone’s eyes.

Time has no beginning;
it has no end.
Throughout immeasurable eons,
violence and conflict have abounded,
and body and spirit deeply wounded.
May the time for healing begin now.
May universal peace be ours.

Do not seek
the measure of your true worth
in the eyes of others.
Search instead
within your own heart.

With the wish to help all beings,
May all my thoughts, words and actions
be void of attachment and ego.
May they arise
from compassion and wisdom.
May they be imbued
with patience and joy.
~ Venerable Wuling
Cultivation is not simply sitting
on a meditation cushion.
Cultivation is
correcting our faults,
acting from wisdom and compassion,
having a peaceful and tranquil nature.
~Venerable Wuling

Listen to Khmer literature and Dhamma talk by His Holiness Jotannano Chuon Nath, Supreme Patriarch of Cambodia Buddhism.
Should anyone wish to ridicule me and make me an object of jest and scorn why should I possibly care if I have dedicated myself to others?
Let them do as they wish with me so long as it does not harm them. May no one who encounters me ever have an insignificant contact.
Regardless whether those whom I meet respond towards me with anger or faith, may the mere fact of our meeting contribute to the fulfilment of their wishes.
May the slander, harm and all forms of abuse that anyone should direct towards me act as a cause of their enlightenment.
As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, so the wise are not shaken by blame and praise. As a deep lake is clear and calm, so the wise become tranquil after they listened to the truth…
Good people walk on regardless of what happens to them. Good people do not babble on about their desires. Whether touched by happiness or by sorrow, the wise never appear elated or depressed. ~The Dhammapada
