Begin each morning by resolving to find something in the day to enjoy.

When you extend pure love to everyone with selfless motivation that is an attitude of kindness.

When you send good wishes and pure feelings to those who are in deep sorrow, that is an attitude of mercy.

When you see the virtues rather than the weaknesses in people that is an attitude of compassion.

When you bless and uplift someone even as they defame you, that is an attitude of forgiveness.

When you tolerate a situation and take responsibility as well as give cooperation even when not appreciated, that is an attitude of humility and self-respect.

Every second, every moment and every breath of your life is nurtured by attitude.

We who lived in concentration camps can remember the people who
walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece
of bread.  They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof
that everything can be taken from a person but one thing:  the last of the
human freedoms--to choose one's attitude in any given set
of circumstances, to choose one's own way.
