“Everything I have ever done I’ve done from a place of love. If I don’t punish you, the world will punish you even worse. The world doesn’t love you. If the police get you, the police don’t love you. When I beat you, I’m trying to save you. When they beat you, they’re trying to kill you.” - Patricia Noah

If we focus more on personal growth, foster quality relationships, and establish a sense of community by being kinder, more generous individuals we may finally ensure a steady supply of the positive feelings we so crave. These conscious everyday choices can ultimately assist us in the pursuit of true happiness.
