SORROW…
“Resisting sorrows creates suffering.”
Tolstoy
LIVING FOR APPROVAL
Nothing distorts life and robs us of true happiness as much as the habit of living, not according to wise teachings and our own conscience, but for the approval of those around us.”
Tolstoy
PROUD PEOPLE
“Proud people are like pedestrians walking on stilts instead of with their own feet. They are higher and the mud does not reach up to them and they take larger steps. But the trouble is that you cannot go very far on stilts and the chances are you will fall into the mud and people will laugh at you.”
Tolstoy
FAULTS
“Faults are at first a stranger in your soul, then a guest, and when faults become your habit, they are your master.”
Tolstoy
