Not what happens today

What matters in life is not what happens to you,

but what you remember and how you remember it

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Believe

Every man has his own courage,

and is betrayed because he seeks in himself the courage of other persons.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 

Everything is practice

As a human being, you have the right to get angry; but as a practitioner, you do not have the right to stop practicing.

Thich Nhat Hanh

Surprised by joy

Our life journey contain many twists and turns and we all make mistakes along the way. And yet, Spring returns

I write, 

erase, 

rewrite.

Erase again, and then…

A poppy blooms.

Hokusai, 1760 – 1849, Japanese painter, printmaker

Even the smallest thing

Every speck of dust has a marvellous soul, but to understand it, one must recover one’s religious and magical sense of things.

Joan Miró, Catalan painter

Living your life

It is not about achieving your dreams but living your life.

If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you.

Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture
