Learn to be happy and content where you are. Do not run towards other places, with the hope of securing happiness and contentment there.  Have inner riches, not outer acquisitions.  Make your home the seat of virtue, of morality and love. Control anger and greed. Keep all personal animosity away from your conduct. Feel that everyone is your kith and kin bound together by love and co-operation. Live amicably, Live Joyfully.  These are the signs of a genuine devotee.

- Sathya Sai Speaks,  Vol 5, Ch 15, Mar 26 1965. 

"The ripe devotee does not feel the blow of fate or fortune. 
It is the unripe one who is wounded by every blow." - Baba
