Sunday Quote: ….. Creating our future


Both our present and our future depend on us.

From moment to moment, we are creating our future.

Tenzin Palmo

To really listen to this day

To listen is to continually give up all expectation and to give our attention, completely and freshly, to what is before us, not really knowing what we will hear or what that will mean. In the practice of our days, to listen is to lean in, softly, with a willingness to be changed by what we hear.

Mark Nepo

Following our heart

We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned,

so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

Joseph Campbell

Remember this today

No matter what the situation

we are responsible  for our own mind states

Joseph Goldstein

Letting life flow

How can you follow the course
of your life
if you do not let it flow?

Lao Tzu

Being happy today 2: Finding joy today and everyday

Look at everything
as though you were seeing it
either for the first
or the last time.
Then your time on earth
will be filled with glory
