but rejoices in those which they do have.

It’s our choice
Do we relate to our circumstances with bitterness or with openness?
This is our choice in every moment
Pema Chodron
When you complain
When you complain you make yourself a victim
Leave the situation,
change the situation ,
or accept it.
All else is madness
Eckhart Tolle
let your preference go
I clearly remember deciding that from now on,
if life was unfolding in a certain way,
and the only reason I was resisting it was of a personal preference,
I would let go of the preference
and let life be in charge.
Michael A. Singer
Greet each day
Think of things that you do not have to do anything to earn or receive from anyone else – things you are already receiving from life before doing anything.
This is a powerful practice to greet each day and helps you to feel centered in the privilege and gifts of life.

Sunday Quote: We don’t always see the whole picture
A glimpse is not a vision.
But to a man on a mountain road by night, a glimpse of the next three feet of road may matter more than a vision of the horizon
