Prescriptions For Living: Inspirational Lessons for a Joyful, Loving Life Quotes

“Do not go looking for problems to feed your soul. Just let life be your teacher. It will nourish you with its inevitable difficulties.

If your physical senses become more sensitive to the beauty you see, the words of love you hear, and the life you feel touching your body and soul, then you know you have discovered the great value of misfortune.”
