Do you need medicine to be healthy? Medicine is only necessary when one is ill. If you aren\u2019t sick, you don\u2019t need a prescription which means you\u2019re healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the same way, if you aren\u2019t suffering, it means happiness is already with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, don\u2019t hurt yourself. If your parents fight, that\u2019s their business. Don\u2019t make it yours. Don\u2019t make yourself unhappy by getting swept up in someone else\u2019s business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider your happiness first and then your family\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are heartbroken over the death of your child, try thinking like this: As long as you continue to grieve over his death, the deceased cannot go to heaven, if you\u2019re a Christian, or to the Land of Happiness, if you\u2019re a Buddhist, leaving the child\u2019s soul to wander around. Letting go of your child will be good for both of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you need medicine to be healthy? Medicine is only necessary when one is ill. If you aren\u2019t sick, you don\u2019t need a prescription which means you\u2019re healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the same way, if you aren\u2019t suffering, it means happiness is already with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, don\u2019t hurt yourself. If your parents fight, that\u2019s their business. Don\u2019t make it yours. Don\u2019t make yourself unhappy by getting swept up in someone else\u2019s business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you need medicine to be healthy? Medicine is only necessary when one is ill. If you aren\u2019t sick, you don\u2019t need a prescription which means you\u2019re healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the same way, if you aren\u2019t suffering, it means happiness is already with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, don\u2019t hurt yourself. If your parents fight, that\u2019s their business. Don\u2019t make it yours. Don\u2019t make yourself unhappy by getting swept up in someone else\u2019s business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the same way, if you aren\u2019t suffering, it means happiness is already with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, don\u2019t hurt yourself. If your parents fight, that\u2019s their business. Don\u2019t make it yours. Don\u2019t make yourself unhappy by getting swept up in someone else\u2019s business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider your happiness first and then your family\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People with lots of worries create a train of thought about the past and future. That is why you need to be awake to the here and now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What others think of you is not important. \u201cI\u201d is important. Be mindful of the here and now solely as yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you renew your mind, every day becomes a new day and the beginning of a new year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day you are free from suffering and become happy is a new day. I wish you would cultivate your happiness and find every day is a new day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
