Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge… is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self kind of understanding.

Opinion is Really the Lowest form of Human Knowledge
The Day you Walk in Another’s Shoes is the Day you Understand
The day you walk in another’s shoes is the day you understand their journey. Until then don’t assume you know anything about how they feel and survive what they’ve been given to bear. Be careful for what you lack compassion for because life has a way of sending you what you fail to show heart towards.
~ Darla Evans
Life is Too Short to Wake Up in the Morning with Regrets
Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don’t, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
~ Harvey Mackay
Do the Things you Used to Talk About Doing but Never Did
Do the things you used to talk about doing but never did. Know when to let go and when to hold on tight. Stop rushing. Don’t be intimidated to say it like it is. Stop apologizing all the time. Learn to say no, so your yes has some oomph. Spend time with the friends who lift you up, and cut loose the ones who bring you down. Stop giving your power away. Be more concerned with being interested than being interesting. Be old enough to appreciate your freedom, and young enough to enjoy it. Finally know who you are.
~ Kristin Armstrong
It is Not Your Role to Make Others Happy
It is not your role to make others happy; it is your role to keep yourself in balance. When you pay attention to how you feel and practice self-empowering thoughts that align with who-you-really-are, you will offer an example of thriving that will be of tremendous value to those who have the benefit of observing you. You cannot get poor enough to help poor people thrive or sick enough to help sick people get well. You only ever uplift from your position of strength and clarity and alignment.
~ Abraham Hicks
