Inhale every blessing you can think of, and exhale all that is not. Like a fist that can always get tighter, you can always give more.

If the surprise outcome of the recent UK referendum - on whether to leave or remain in the European Union - teaches us anything, it is that supposedly worthy displays of democracy in action can actually do more harm than good. Witness a nation now more divided; an intergenerational schism in the making; both a governing and opposition party torn to shreds from the inside; infinitely more complex issues raised than satisfactory solutions provided. It begs the question 'Was it really all worth it' ?
The loudest preacher in the world is your conscience, the cleverest is wisdom, the rowdiest is passion, the surest is truth, the purest is love, and the highest is God.

In my youth I had three teachers: friends, enemies, and books. In my adulthood I had three professors: God, nature, and life.
Knowledge is the path, understanding is the way, wisdom is the highway, and enlightenment is the destination.
The sweeter the fruit a tree bears the greater the number of birds that eat from it.

Learn what you can, teach what you know, live how you ought.
There is no smarter professor than life, and no wiser sage than experience.
To be knowledgeable, sit before scholars; to be wise, sit before life.
On the path to greatness, life teaches you to walk with stones in your shoes.
If an eagle is teaching you to fly, ignore the advice of turkeys.
An ambitious amateur will rise above a complacent master.
Intelligence is the icing, but wisdom is the cake.
A few hours spent reading a book is better than a lifetime of ignorance.

An ordinary teacher teaches how to accumulate information. A good teacher teaches how to assimilate information. A great teacher teaches how to stand up and turn every challenge into opportunities. An extraordinary teacher teaches how to be larger than life by following your own dreams, own goals and own instincts.
Do you remember your first real teacher? Your first real teacher is your first sorrow, your first crying!
Honor those who inspire you, who show you the way. The teachers, artists , writers, the healers. Respect their time, their intellectual properties, their fee. They live a life of service, but this is also the way they make their living. This is how they feed, clothe and shelter themselves and their families. This is how they can continue to do their work in the world.
We got up at 6am to go to school for a few years and we found it so challenging. Some people in our country have woken up at 6am every single morning for decades now so that this nation can wake up and see great mornings. I salute all those wonderful super humans who are inspiring a better tomorrow. Thank you, Teachers!
