True happiness... is not attained
through self-gratification,
but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
- Helen Keller

Each of us is of infinite value,
and each of us has the ability to make
a profound difference in the lives we touch.
We leave our most profoundly positive impact
on those around us by the nature of our lives
and the example we set -
not by how busy we are,
or how important we believe we are.
Setting an example of being loving, relaxed and joyful,
regardless of external circumstances,
is a great legacy for our family and for the world.
Self importance - ego - is not a path to happiness.
Focusing one's whole life on responsibilities,
without taking time for self-renewal and play,
abandons the joy and the true value of life.
I want my tombstone to read, "Inspired others,"

- Abraham Lincoln

Nobody needs your help.
I know, I know, this is a difficult one. But it is true.
This does not mean no one wants your help,

Aspect of Divinity is powerless without you is inaccurate.
- Neale Donald Walsch

Seek always to do some good, somewhere.
Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth.
