 Dad Problems: You ordered a burger & fries, but end up eating a burger and chocolate Funny Face pancake because "somebody" changed her mind when she saw the French fries.

"Be Prepared"

"A tree with strong roots can withstand the most violent storm, but the tree can’t grow roots just as the storm appears on the horizon."

- From THE ART OF HAPPINESS

"Love Your Enemies"

"There is no fortitude similar to patience, just as there is no affliction worse than hatred.  Therefore, one must exert one’s best efforts not to harbor hatred towards the enemy, but rather use the encounter as an opportunity to enhance one’s practice of patience and tolerance."

- The Dalai Lama in THE ART OF HAPPINESS
