Dear Chritine,
From Buddha's Little Instruction Book (by Jack Kornfield, author of A Path With Heart):
"No matter how difficult the past, you can always begin again today."
"Everything that has a beginning has an ending. Make your peace with that and all will be well."
Hello Philippines! Am visiting July 26 to August 2. Yeehah!

> I agree, Matthew: there is NO direct correlation between money and depression. I posted that quote by Warren Buffett "Money is a by-product of something I like to do very much" to highlight what many hardworking people forget: that money is but a natural outcome for engaging in meaningful activity. Workers get depressed from doing jobs they "hate" because they "have to". It is not money that causes depression. Rather it is the lack of fulfilment from one's activity that leads to depression. The key, therefore, is to find and engage in meaningful activity - where money just flows as an outcome. Perry

Our human nature seems to dwell on the negatives - and downplay the positives - which inevitably leads to a downward spiral towards, your guessed it, depression. It is my intention to use this forum, ultimately, towards well-being and success. By way of these "power" messages, we turn our focus towards where we want TO GO (and NOT what we want to avoid).
