Each moment is just what it is, it may be the only moment of our life.  We could get depressed about it, or we could appreciate it and delight in the preciousness of every single moment of our life.

When you are awake, some say you are no longer dreaming or could it be you are just dreaming another dream?  If life is just shifting from one dream to another, what is truly real?  This strange contrast is something to contemplate.

The natural thing to do is to nourish your community with a benevolent heart.  Be simple and generous, don’t try to control, don’t compare, don’t compete, be content with just being who you are.  This way everybody will respect you.

If a person or persons are annoying you, do not engage, retreat with dignity and reserve. When you carry your retreat out correctly, it is a sign of strength.   It is not good to hate people or situations, for hatred is a form of subjective involvement by which you are bound to the hated object.

Quote: We are told not to cross the bridge until we come to it, but this world is owned by those who crossed bridges in their imaginations far ahead of the crowd.
