~ Change is certain. Peace is followed by disturbances; departure of evil men by their return. Such recurrences should not constitute occasions for sadness but realities for awareness, so that one may be happy in the interim. ~ ~ Live by this credo: have a little laugh at life and look around you for happiness instead of sadness. Laughter has always brought me out of unhappy situations. ~ ~ Recalling days of sadness, memories haunt me. Recalling days of happiness, I haunt my memories. ~ ~ When sadness comes, just sit by the side and look at it and say, I am the watcher, I am not sadness, and see the difference. Immediately you have cut the very root of sadness. It is no more nourished. It will die of starvation. We feed these emotions by being identified with them. ~ ~ The Family is the Country of the heart. There is an angel in the Family who, by the mysterious influence of grace, of sweetness, and of love, renders the fulfillment of duties less wearisome, sorrows less bitter. The only pure joys unmixed with sadness ~ ~ Even the happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happiness' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. ~ ~ I will greet this day with love in my heart. And how will I do this? Henceforth will I look on all things with love and I will be born again. I will love the sun for it warms my bones; yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit. I will love the light for it shows me the way; yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars. I will welcome happiness for it enlarges my heart; yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul. I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due; yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge. ~ ~

~ ~ Sadness does not inhere in things; it does not reach us from the world and through mere contemplation of the world. It is a product of our own thought. We create it out of whole cloth. ~ ~ Sadness is always the legacy of the past; regrets are pains of the memory ~ ~ You cannot prevent the birds of sadness from passing over your head, but you can prevent their making a nest in your hair ~ ~ You cannot prevent the birds of sadness from passing over your head, but you can prevent their making a nest in your hair ~ ~ The essential sadness is to go through life without loving. But it would be almost equally sad to leave this world without ever telling those you loved that you love them. ~ ~ Oh the gladness of their gladness when they're glad, And the sadness of their sadness when they're sad; But the gladness of their gladness, and the sadness of their sadness, Are as nothing to their badness when they're bad ~ ~ What is the source of sadness, but feebleness of the mind? What giveth it power but the want of reason? Rouse thyself to the combat, and she quitteth the field before thou strikest. ~ ~ Sadness and gladness succeed each other ~ ~ Sadness does not inhere in things; it does not reach us from the world and through mere contemplation of the world. It is a product of our own thought. We create it out of whole cloth. ~ ~ In joy or sadness, flowers are our constant friends. ~ ~ The word 'happiness' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. ~ ~ I actually think sadness and darkness can be very beautiful and healing. ~ ~ Sadness is but a wall between two gardens. ~ ~ A feeling of sadness and longing that is not akin to pain, and resembles sorrow only as the mist resembles the rain. ~ ~ Always direct your thoughts to those truths that will give you confidence, hope, joy, love, thanksgiving, and turn away your mind from those that inspire you with fear, sadness, depression. ~ ~ Smile, even if it's a sad smile, because sadder than a sad smile is the sadness of not knowing how to smile. ~ ~ The essential sadness is to go through life without loving. But it would be almost equally sad to leave this world without ever telling those you loved that you love them.
~ ~ Sadness and gladness succeed each other ~ ~ Call a truce, then to our labors - let us feast with friends and neighbors And be merry as the custom of our caste; For if "faint and forced the laughter," and if sadness follow after, We are richer by one mocking Christmas past ~ ~ I had NO IDEA that mothering my own child would be so healing to my own sadness from my childhood. ~ |
