Try - mindfulness quotes Thich -

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. When you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don't try to be a magnolia flower. If you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be, you will suffer all your life. True happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.

"Turn down the volume of your negative inner voice and create a nurturing inner voice to take its place. When you make a mistake, forgive yourself, learn from it, and move on instead of obsessing about it. Equally important, don’t allow anyone else to dwell on your mistakes or shortcomings or to expect perfection from you."

Good reads compassion

“The lotus is the most beautiful flower, whose petals open one by one. But it will only grow in the mud. In order to grow and gain wisdom, first you must have the mud --- the obstacles of life and its suffering. ... The mud speaks of the common ground that humans share, no matter what our stations in life. ... Whether we have it all or we have nothing, we are all faced with the same obstacles: sadness, loss, illness, dying and death. If we are to strive as human beings to gain more wisdom, more kindness and more compassion, we must have the intention to grow as a lotus and open each petal one by one. ”

If we could look into each other’s hearts and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

Happiness is not just a smile on your face, it’s the inner contentment you feel about yourself. It’s the feeling that all is right, and you want to thrive every day. Apart from boosting your self-confidence and pumping your endorphins, happiness positively impacts your quality of life and productivity. Happiness allows you to have a more positive outlook in life. Chasing happiness is a worthwhile goal. It can just about change your life. You can find happiness in the smallest and the simplest of things—reading a book, talking a walk, petting a dog, or just spending time with your friends. These activities allow your inner self to bloom and you can radiate happiness all around you. Happiness does not mean smiling all the time, it simply means you acknowledge the difficulties and are willing to face any hurdles life throws at you. Here are some motivational and inspiring words on happiness that will help you on your journey to find your kind of happiness.

"Imagine you are walking in the woods and you see a small dog sitting by a tree. As you approach it, it suddenly lunges at you, teeth bared. You are frightened and angry. But then you notice that one of its legs is caught in a trap. Immediately your mood shifts from anger to concern: You see that the dog's aggression is coming from a place of vulnerability and pain. This applies to all of us. When we behave in hurtful ways, it is because we are caught in some kind of trap. The more we look through the eyes of wisdom at ourselves and one another, the more we cultivate a compassionate heart."
