I have no expectations, but plenty of hopes

I have no attachments, but plenty of desires

As if you could kill time without injuring eternity ~ Henry David Thoreau

What a man thinks of himself, that it is which determines, or rather indicates, his fate ~ Henry David Thoreau

Discontent is the first necessity of progress. ~ fortune cookie

The more I know, the less I learn
The more I learn, the less I know

In all of your dealings in all of your life, have only one expectation of yourself:

Love is what connects our True Self to everything else.  Love radiates from within.

Let each of us examine his thoughts; he will find them wholly concerned with the past or the future.  We almost never think of the present, and if we do think of it, it is only to see what light it throws on our plans for the future.  The present is never our end.  The past and the present are our means, the future alone our end.  Thus we never actually live, but hope to live, and since we are always planning how to be happy, it is inevitable that we should never be so. - Blaise Pascal
So let's all surprise Blaise and live with the present as our end! - Parzival Sattva
