Recently, I read one of books of best seller author Robin Sharma, named Who will cry when you die.
In chapter 20 it starts with quote of Mother Teresa,
“There are no great acts. There are only small acts done with great love.”
Indeed it’s a heartwarming that our one little smile can make someone’s day. So just keep smiling and spread love, as it cost nothing to smile.
There is another quote in tha same chapter.
Which reads as, “Without the rich heart, wealth is an ugly begger.”
And this chapter of book ends with, Tolstoy’s quote, “The means to gain happiness is to throw out for oneself like a spider in all directions an adhesive web of love, and to catch in all that comes.”

“There is a Scandinavian saying which some of us might well take as a rallying cry for our lives: ‘The north wind made the Vikings.’ Wherever did we get the idea that secure and pleasant living, the absence of difficulty, and the comfort of ease, ever of themselves made people either good or happy? Upon the contrary, people who pity themselves go on pitying themselves even when they are laid softly on a cushion, BUT ALWAYS IN HISTORY CHARACTER AND HAPINESS COME TO PEOPLE IN ALL SORTS OF CIRCUMSTANCES, GOOD, BAD AND INDIFFERENT, WHEN THEY SHOULDER THEIR PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY. So, repeatedly the north wind has made the Vikings.”
Harry Emerson Fosdick
The Power to See it Through
Some may never live but the crazy never die
* “You know, even in places that are dark, even in the midst of war, sometimes, people find light in each other.”
* “But, like, what does that mean really? Unless my goal is just to sit and stare at her like someone would stare at an ocean or a mountain range, pretty is just a visual.”
* “Love is freely given, not something you have to earn.”
* “There’s nothing more uncool than insecurity.”
* “Why had I ever thought my dad would be the superhero? Mom had been standing in front of me all along, holding our world up on her shoulders.”
* “I had to take small steps. But they were steps nonetheless.”
* Sometimes people might appear to walk tall, but on their shoulders they could be carrying an incredibly heavy load you know nothing about.
* You are walking around with your head on fire but no one can see the flames.
