“Do not look for happiness outside yourself. The awakened seek happiness inside.”

“Happiness is your nature. It is not wrong to desire it. What is wrong is seeking it outside when it is inside.”

“Looking outside of yourself for love and acceptance, leaves your happiness in the hands of others.”

“Know that God has a plan for your life. Turn your life over to him every day. Stop looking outside yourself for validation and approval-you're letting other people define your happiness. Instead of trying so hard to manipulate life, take care of yourself on the inside. Then all those other attributes you're so desperately seeking will find you eventually.”

“Happiness is something we can find inside once we have obtained the insight that it will never come in sight if we look for it outside.”

“If you seek happiness, look in the mirror. If you seek love, look elsewhere.”
