“There are a few moments in your life when you are truly and completely happy, and you remember to give thanks. Even as it happens you are nostalgic for the moment, you are tucking it away in your scrapbook.”

“Trust your happiness and the richness of your life at this moment. It is as true and as much yours as anything else that ever happened to you.”

“The most beautiful moments in life are moments when you are expressing your joy, not when you are seeking it.”

“Life is not breaths you take, but the moments that take your breath away.”

“In marriage, until you can truly trust your life partner completely, you will always be filled with suspicion, jealousy and doubt. You will not truly feel the meaning of happiness in married life.”

“There's a long goodbye,
and it happens every day,
when a passerby
invites your eye
to come away.
Even as you smile a quick hello
you let her go,
you let the moment fly…
Too late you turn your head,
you know you've said
the Long Goodbye.”

“Life is not measured by the breathes you take, but by the moments that take your breathe away.”

“You think that your attention is in the present moment when it's actually taken up completely by time. You cannot be both unhappy and fully present in the Now. What you refer to as your "life" should more accurately be called your "life situation."”

“Remember that as a teenager you are in the last stage of your life when you will be happy to hear the phone is for you.”

“You have to understand that in a person's life there are a few precious moments in which decisions, choices that you make now, will affect you for the rest of your life.”
