Faith is not something to grasp, it is a state to grow into.
--Mahatma Gandhi

Gandhi Inspiration of the Day: How do you tell the story of one powerful man who moved a nation to independence, marched 241 miles (388 km) in a symbolic act of freedom, and brought violent conflicts to a screeching  halt through fasting? How do you express the complexity of this shy and  timid young man who grew into a fiercely gentle leader and pioneer of  nonviolence? If you're MC Yogi, you rap about it. With smooth rhythm and  lucid lyrics, he explains Gandhi's message to "be the change you wish to  see in the world" and spins a tale that would warm anyone's heart.

When I read the Bhagavad-Gita and reflect about how God created this universe everything else seems so superfluous. - Albert Einstein

 We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. -- Will Durant (translation of Aristotle)

Character may be manifested in the great moments, but it is made in the small ones. --Phillips Brooks

"You can do it if you believe you can." - Napoleon Hill

"Success is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well." - Jim Rohn

Practice hope. As hopefulness becomes a habit, you can achieve a permanently happy spirit. --Norman Vincent Peale Positive Thinking Every Day

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. - Marianne
