“Much depends on your attitude. If you are filled with negative judgment and anger, then you will feel separate from other people. You will feel lonely. But if you have an open heart and are filled with trust and friendship, even if you are physically alone, even living a hermit’s life, you will never feel lonely.”
― Desmond Tutu, The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World

“The most important quality to have toward your day is gratitude for what you have experienced, even for what was hard and what allowed you to learn and grow.”

“It is not happiness that makes us grateful. It is gratefulness that makes us happy. Every moment is a gift.”
