“Listen, after almost twenty years of call-in radio, I can tell you that the main thrust of too many lives is an overemphasis on feeling good instead of doing good. Being admired and respected by the self and others has taken a back seat to feeling good, or, at least, avoiding feeling bad. And, oh boy, the excuses some of you can come up with for doing so!” YearsI CanSelfFeelingsLife IsBoysTakenTwentiesCome UpRadioExcuseFeel GoodSeatsAvoidingDoing GoodThrustFeeling Bad Author:Laura Schlessinger
“Our life is so short that every time I see my children, I enjoy them as much as I can. Whenever I can, I enjoy my beloved, my family, my friends, my apprentices. But mainly I enjoy myself, because I am with myself all the time. Why should I spend my precious time with myself judging myself, rejecting myself, creating guilt and shame? Why should I push myself to be angry or jealous? If I don't feel good emotionally, I find out what is causing it and I fix it. Then I can recover my happiness and keep going with my story.” IfsFeelsShouldChildrenI CanStoriesFeelingsHappinessLife IsTimeEnjoyFamilyOur LivesJudgingFriendsCreatingMy FriendsMy FamilyShameAngryGuiltFeel GoodJealousyMy ChildrenBelovedKeep GoingJealousShould IGood FriendRejectingApprenticeLife Is So ShortPrecious TimeJudging Myself Author:Miguel Angel Ruiz
