1. When you love a flower

    Comment

    When you like a flower, you just pluck it. But when you love a flower, you water it daily. ~Buddha

  2. Understand and see

    Comment

  3. Someone who points out your flaws

    Comment

    Someone who points out your flaws to you is not necessarily your enemy. Someone who speaks of your virtues is not necessarily your friend. ~hackspiri

  4. When we start to feel anxious or depressed

    Comment

  5. Let it go

    Comment

    I follow four dictates: face it, accept it, deal with it, then let it go. ~Sheng-yen
