More From Dalai Lama

Acceptance is appreciation, and the high value of appreciation is such that to appreciate appreciation seems to be the fundamental prerequisite for survival. mankind will not die for lack of information; it may perish for lack of appreciation.
Appreciation Acceptance Appreciate
I love, cherish, and respect women in my mind, in my heart, and in my soul. this love of women is the soil in which my life is rooted. it is the soil of our common life together. my life grows out of this soil. in any other soil, i would die. in whatever ways i am strong, i am strong because of the power and passion of this nurturant love.
Strong Passion Heart
Consider a tree for a moment. as beautiful as trees are to look at, we don't see what goes on underground - as they grow roots. trees must develop deep roots in order to grow strong and produce their beauty. but we don't see the roots. we just see and enjoy the beauty. in much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like the roots of a tree.
Beautiful Strong Order
The only thing that really matters is that there be an action of goodness, love and intelligence in living. is goodness individual or collective, is love personal or impersonal, is intelligence yours, mine or somebody else? if it is yours or mine then it is not intelligence, or love, or goodness. if goodness is an affair of the individual or of the collective, according to one's particular preference or decision, then it is no longer goodness.
Life Decision Matter
I'm often asked how i define "success." it's an overused term, but i fundamentally view this elusive beast as a combination of two things - achievement and appreciation. one isn't enough: achievement without appreciation makes you ambitious but miserable. appreciation without achievement makes you unambitious but happy.
Appreciation Views Two
My advice for someone who wants to be creative but has a chronic illness is to think of something that you can do as opposed to all the things you can't do - and do that. it's just like gardening: what can grow in this soil? there's some soil you can grow roses in and some soil you can only grow cactuses in, so if you can only grow cactuses, become the best cactus grower in the whole world. taking care of yourself is the most important thing. find something that makes you happy. don't get down on yourself that you can't run a 4k or dance all night long at a fun club. give yourself a break.

I honestly believe that the doctrine of hell was born in the glittering eyes of snakes that run in frightful coils watching for their prey. i believe it was born with the yelping, howling, growling and snarling of wild beasts... i despise it, i defy it, and i hate it.
