Real Happiness...
Swami Vivakananda: "Real happiness is a state of mind wherein even the idea of happiness is totally gone, or is totally absent. This is akin to perfection. It comes only when everything is summed up in One, and nothing remains. Happiness is not in the objects near and far outside oneself. Restlessness to attain the ideal will help a lot."

A thought for Today
When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stone-cutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it would split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before together.
