“Our life depends on the kind of thoughts we nurture. If our thoughts are peaceful, calm, meek, and kind, then that is what our life is like. If our attention is turned to the circumstances in which we live, we are drawn into a whirlpool of thoughts and can have neither peace nor tranquility.” ~Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica 
“The people who seem to be the most content don’t focus on a time years ahead when they hope to have whatever they imagine it takes to be happy — money or time or a wonderful relationship. They live in the present and take their pleasure seriously. And they create their own pleasures.” 
“Have nothing in your houses that is not useful or you do not believe to be beautiful.” ~ William Morris 
“When we lack proper time for the simple pleasures of life, for the enjoyment of eating, drinking, playing, creating, visiting friends, and watching children at play, then we have missed the purpose of life. Not by bread alone do we live but on all these human and heart-hungry luxuries.” ~ Ed Hayes |
