Quotes from Christine Caldwell

So we come upon the radical idea that happiness is not about how many good times we've had and bummers we haven't had, but from being willing to greet life as it occurs, to meet it and respond in its gush and flow. We don't attach ourselves to the contents of life, but we celebrate the very process of being alive.

Acceptance is not something we can give to a person or thing. It only exists as a function of our relationship to our own experience.
