“Modern society will find no solution to the ecological problem unless it takes a serious look at its lifestyle. In many parts of the world society is given to instant gratification and consumerism while remaining indifferent to the damage which these attitudes cause. Simplicity, moderation and discipline, as well as a spirit of sacrifice, must become part of everyday life, lest all suffer the negative consequences of the careless habits of a few.” WorldWellsLooksProblemSpiritSufferingGivenCausesAttitudeSacrificeModernSeriousHabitDisciplineSolutionsConsequenceNegativeEverydaySimplicityLifestyleInstantDamageIndifferentConsumerismEveryday LifeModerationGratificationCarelessEcologicalOverconsumptionModern SocietyInstant GratificationNegative ConsequencesSerious Look Author:Pope John Paul II

“Millions of people miss meditation because meditation has taken on a wrong connotation. It looks very serious, looks gloomy, has something of the church in it, looks as if it is only for people who are dead, or almost dead, who are gloomy, serious, have long faces, who have lost festivity, fun, playfulness, celebration.... A really meditative person is playful: life is fun for him.... He enjoys it tremendously. He is not serious. He is relaxed.” PeopleIfsLooksPersonsLongFacesLife IsLostFunEnjoyChurchMillionsTakenMeditationMissingSeriousCelebrationRelaxedGloomyConnotationPlayfulnessMiss MeFestivitiesLife Is FunSerious Look Author:Rajneesh
