sage words


This is my simple religion.
There is no need for temples;
no need for complicated philosophy.
  Our own brain, our own heart
  is our temple; 
the philosophy is kindness.

-the Dalai Lama

self-worth


My worth 
is not determined by my
 talents, appearance, or external praise;
my worth is determined 
by my heart, my soul,
and the love I give
to others.
