Resilience – Mindfulbalance

So few grains of happiness
measured against all the dark
and still the scales balance.

The world asks of us
only the strength we have and we give it.
Then it asks more, and we give it.

Jane Hirshfield, The Weighing

It contains reflections to encourage the practice of meditation, guidance if you are just starting, as well as occasional posts on psychology and spirituality. The daily themes are prompted by Rilke's advice: "Write about what your everyday life offers you; describe your sorrows and desires, the thoughts that pass through your mind and your belief in some kind of beauty" Written in Co.
