“Death is a part of all our lives. Whether we like it or not, it is bound to happen. Instead of avoiding thinking about it, it is better to understand its meaning. We all have the same body, the same human flesh, and therefore we will all die. There is a big difference, of course, between natural death and accidental death, but basically death will come sooner or later. If from the beginning your attitude is 'Yes, death is part of our lives,' then it may be easier to face.” IfsThinkingHumansMayBodyBigsHappensFacesDiesCoursesNaturalDifferencesAttitudeOur LivesEasierBoundsFleshSooner Or LaterAvoidingNatural Death Book:The Dalai Lama’s Little Book of Wisdom Source: The Dalai Lama’s Little Book of Wisdom
“The difference between shallow happiness and a deep, sustaining joy is sorrow. Happiness lives where sorrow is not. When sorrow arrives, happiness dies. It can't stand pain. Joy, on the other hand, rises from sorrow and therefore can withstand all grief. Joy, by the grace of God, is the transfiguration of suffering into endurance, and of endurance into character, and of character into hope--and the hope that has become our joy does not (as happiness must for those who depend up on it) disappoint us.” DoeCharacterHandsPainJoySufferingDiesDifferencesGriefGraceDependsSorrowEnduranceShallowGrace Of GodDisappointLife HappinessSustainingTransfiguration Book:Measuring the days: daily reflections with Walter Wangerin, Jr Source: Measuring the days: daily reflections with Walter Wangerin, Jr

“Everybody thinks that you go to Africa and you build a school, or you teach English, or you build a hospital. But actually all you need to do is play football with kids for six months and then after they've trusted you, you tell them about the truth of Aids, and that their grandmother didn't die from witchcraft, she died from Aids. And that's the biggest difference you can make.” ThinkingNeedsPlayKidsSchoolDiesDifferencesTeachFootballMonthsSixDiedAidsGrandmotherHospitalsTrustedSix MonthsWitchcraft Author:Tom Hiddleston

“In a time like this, when records are not selling, he's the only one that is selling. You know, Drake and all the other ones [did well], but Em did [close to] 800,000 his first week, and he's #1 for the fifth week. It's incredible. I think he has a faithful fan base of people who have been following him for years. They're not going to stop following him and not stop listening to his music. Em said he didn't like his last album as much as this one. You can hear the difference. I like both of the albums. '3 a.m.' is one of my joints. But Eminem has followers that's gonna mess with him until the day he dies.” PeopleThinkingKnowsYearsFirstsHas BeensSaidLastsDiesDifferencesRecordsWeekFansListeningIncrediblesAlbumsFollowingSellingMessFaithfulEmsFollowersFifthJoints Author:Tony Yayo
