“Happiness is the feeling we experience when we are too busy to be miserable.”

“Life is something we have to experience, really feel, not just study for with books in a library. Learning is about so much more than school. If we’re too busy studying, we miss out on the experience.”

“Happiness is just how you feel when you don't feel miserable.”

“We can make room for more experiences of radiance, peace, and beauty; and when we do, they arrive. When we make an intention to experience peace, when we value it enough to make room for it and invite it into our busy lives, it arrives bearing gifts. We make room for this guest, not by doing anything, but by just being, just allowing ourselves to rest, once and for all, in this sweet moment with no agenda, no purpose, no reason, but just to experience the moment as it is. We make room for peace and happiness by just noticing them. We notice that they are already here, and noticing them brings them more strongly into focus. Peace and happiness are always here, but they often go unnoticed.”

“We forget about death. We are too busy with our distraction. And when it hits, it hits hard.”

“Know that the happiness we feel when we bring joy to others is the greatest happiness in the world.”
