Day #28

Today’s favourite poses: Some Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon shiz i made up (no disrespect intended)

Minutes with a relatively quiet mind: I honestly couldn't say. Prob. 5 or 10.

Today’s interesting/thought provoking reading: (Taken from the Dhammapada, Words of the Buddha)

Live in Joy, In love,
Even among those who hate.

Live in joy, In health,
Even among the afflicted.

Live in joy, In peace,
Even among the troubled.

Look within. Be still.
Free from fear and attachment,
Know the sweet joy of living in the way.

There is no fire like greed,
No crime like hatred,
No sorrow like separation,
No sickness like hunger of heart,
And no joy like the joy of freedom.

Health, contentment and trust
Are your greatest possessions,
And freedom your greatest joy.

Look within. Be still.
Free from fear and attachment,
Know the sweet joy of living in the way.

    The sort of stuff we all need to be reading and watching...

    ...to elevate us to where we need to be.
