The intensity of your desire governs the power with which the force is directed.
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.
The one who can adjust to any situation with humility possesses true greatness.
Success is merged in every step of those who have a pure and gentle nature.

I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man I keep his house.

grandest. When I see how much happiness I have given, I easily remember the purpose of my life.
