Buddhism

Excerpts from Buddhist texts.

Loving kindness

Do not forget to have loving-kindness for yourself. You are also a living being who deserves, who needs love and compassion. In fact, you can’t really love others until you learn to love yourself. That doesn’t mean being selfish and egotistical. It means being a friend to yourself, accepting yourself as you are with your faults and limitations, knowing that you can change and grow. - Unknown

Be aware of Impermanence

Everything is subject to change. What is born, must die. See this in things around you. Notice in your current experience how happiness, sadness, boredom, all come and go. Watch how the more you cling to something, the harder it is when it eventually has to disappear. - Unknown
