You are what you believe yourself to be.
None of us knows what might happen even the next minute$$$ yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have Faith.
At every moment of our lives$$$ we all have one foot in a fairy tale and the other in the abyss.
A child can teach an adult three things: to be happy for no reason$$$ to always be busy with something$$$ and to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires.
It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.
We always have a tendency to see those things that do not exist and to be blind to the great lessons that are right there before our eyes.
The secret is here in the present. If you pay attention to the present$$$ you can improve upon it. And$$$ if you improve on the present$$$ what comes later will also be better.

How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy$$$ which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog$$$ there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits$$$ slovenly systems of agriculture$$$ sluggish methods of commerce$$$ and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.
