- Sleep
Most people are aware of the importance of sleep, but as a society we don't do what is good for us in this area. We are chronically sleep deprived and even proud of the fact, since it indicates a life on the go and total dedication to our work. But the mind platter indicates that true dedication would consist of balancing the brain for optimal performance, which means taking seriously time in, down time, and sleep time.

- Illusion of Freedom
The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.
Bob Marley
In life we do things. Some we wish we had never done. Some we wish we could replay a million times in our heads. But they all make us who we are. And in the end they shape every detail about us. If we were to reverse any of them we wouldn't be the person we are. So just live. Make mistakes. Have wonderful memories. But never second guess who you are, where you have been, and most importantly, where it is you're going.

- I Just Want To Know...
I don't care what you did in the past and I don't want to figure out how we happen to be together. I just want to know if you will stand by my side and face everything that comes our way. I just want to know if you will keep your promise of loving my soul till eternity...

Why is it that we always fall for our best friend? Is it because we know we can trust them? Is it because we know them so well? Is it because of the way they know exactly what's going on in our heads? Or is it because they are there any day, anytime, anywhere, without the promise of kisses, intimate touches or whispered sentiments of love? I think we love them because they are there when there is nothing in it for them except for that glimmer of hope that maybe someday there will be.
Dalai Lama
As human beings, we all want to be happy and free from misery. We have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace. The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger, attachment, fear and suspicion, while love and compassion and a sense of universal responsibility are the sources of peace and happiness.

I've been walked on, used and forgotten and I don't regret one moment of it, because in those moments I've learned a lot. I've learned who I can trust and can't. I've learned the meaning of friendship. I've learned how to tell when people are lying and when they're sincere. I've learned how to be myself, and appreciate the truly great people in my life as they arrive.

Everyday you wait is another day that you will never get back again. The most important thing is not to be bitter about life's disappointments. Learn to let go of the past. Don't be afraid to make mistakes because most of the time the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you will get more than you ever could have imagined. Who knows where life can take you? The road is long and in the end, the journey is your destination.

- Serve a Purpose
The sad truth is that there are some people who will only be there for you as long as you have something they need. When you no longer serve a purpose to them, they will leave. The good news is, if you tough it out, you'll eventually weed these people out of your life and be left with some great people you can count on. We rarely lose friends and lovers, we just gradually figure out who our real ones are.
