So Simple

“I always consider myself personally one of seven billion human beings. Nothing special. So, on that level, I have tried to make people aware that the ultimate source of happiness is simply a healthy body and a warm heart.” (Dalai Lama)

And the truth
Is usually quite simple
A healthy body
A warm heart
Are all you need
Remember that we all
Are exactly the same
Our inner worlds
Intertwine and intersect
No one is really
That separate from you
And the truth
Is usually quite simple
So simple

Share the warmth of you heart today.

Your Own Way

Walking on your path
Only you know which steps to take
What is the point of
Asking for directions
When no else knows
Your heart’s destination
It is only step by step
Day by day
That you will find the way
Your own way
So keep going
Step by step
Day by day
Only you know which steps to take
Walking on your path

Unstoppable


“Everything worthwhile in life is won through surmounting the associated negative experience. Any attempt to escape the negative, to avoid it or quash it or silence it, only backfires. The avoidance of suffering is a form of suffering. The avoidance of struggle is a struggle. The denial of failure is a failure. Hiding what is shameful is itself a form of shame.  Pain is an inextricable thread in the fabric of life, and to tear it out is not only impossible, but destructive: attempting to tear it out unravels everything else with it. To try to avoid pain is to give too many fucks about pain.  In contrast, if you’re able to not give a fuck about the pain, you become unstoppable.” (Mark Manson, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life)


And in this life
We must remember
The best comes with the worst
The polarity is always present
Teachings us, showing us
That all is welcome
That all is One
