Practice opening up to whatever you feel rather than shutting down on yourself; by doing this something will shift permanently in us. We will find that our habitual patterns will begin to soften, and we will begin to see the faces and hear the words of people who are talking to us.
With determination you can accomplish things you never thought possible. Set goals and plans with determination, but along with determination goes effort. Look at the things you want to accomplish with a sense of playful determination, make a game of it.
Embrace all things, accept everything, extend your goodwill in every direction. Or, you can deny everything, recognizing that everything you see is an illusion. Both paths lead to the spontaneous awareness of the harmonious oneness, then all you must do is participate in it.
As we age, we should take time to enjoy the blessings of life. If you only sigh and remember the sorrowful times, you will bring on misfortune. Use your intelligence and wisdom to deal with the varying course of life the good things that come as well as the bad.
