and can never grow in a jealous heart.

Regrets and their cousins, resentments,
are a huge cause of self-inflicted suffering.

to put the past in the past where it belongs.
However, sometimes a simple symbolic act can help immeasurably
to grant ourselves freedom from the past.

Life is NOT "Supposed to be Fair."
Know that there is no single way that life is "supposed" to be.

Our only path to happiness lies in being open
to receiving whatever life throws at us -
with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.
