 Precious Human Birth
Too much suffering is not good. If you become always manipulated by it, if suffering is always the boss, that is not good. And if you have too little suffering, you will not be inspired to pursue real happiness. That is why we speak of ‘precious human birth.’ Because being born in the human body provides just the right amount of suffering that we need in order to transform suffering into a source of wisdom and knowledge. – Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, “Trust Through Reason” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Closeness with Every Being
For compassion to develop toward a wide range of persons, mere knowledge of how beings suffer is not sufficient; there has to be a sense of closeness with regard to every being. That intimacy is established either through merely reflecting that everyone equally wants happiness and doesn’t want suffering, or through reflecting on the implications of rebirth, or both, with the one reinforcing the other. – Jeffrey Hopkins, “Everyone as a Friend” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Because suffering is impermanent, that is why we can transform it. Because happiness is impermanent, that is why we have to nourish it.

 What’s at the Root of Happiness?
It takes some training to equate complete letting go with comfort. But in fact, “nothing to hold on to” is the root of happiness. There’s a sense of freedom when we accept that we’re not in control. – Pema Chödrön, “The In-between State” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Goals
Gratitude, loving kindness and forgiveness are the true foundations for a life of love and happiness. As you will see in a later chapter, these contribute vastly to inner peace, tranquility and equanimity. These qualities purify your heart and mind and promote beneficial hormones in your brain. These are some things to strive for and meditate upon on a daily basis. When gratitude, loving kindness and forgiveness are in place, it is much, much easier to accomplish your goals, whatever they might be. – Jerome Freedman, Mindfulness Breaks: Your Path to Awakening Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Happiness is Best Shared
Happiness is not happiness unless it is shared. For happiness is the one thing in all the world that comes to us only at the moment we give it, and is likewise increased by being given away. – Clark Strand, “The Wisdom of Frogs” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 “From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that we are here for the sake of each other– above all for those upon whose smile and well-being our own happiness depends, and also for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day I realize how much my own outer and inner life is built upon the labors of my fellow men, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.”
