When we see suffering in our life, we can be curious, notice it, and be mindful of our reactions to it.  Our reactions are usually habitual.  Instead, we could see the next impulse come up and how we spin off from there, whether good or bad, without judgement or any intention.

When you get tired of holding on to things, you will then be able to live fully, simply realize the wealth you already have.  Concentrate on the resources you have, embrace your fate, work with it, and take advantage of it.  Ultimately, we cannot grasp anything permanently in life.

Let go of all desires, detach yourself from all things, dissolve all duality, the idea of good and bad, beautiful and ugly etc.; practice undiscriminating virtue toward everything and everybody.  These practices are the beginning of liberation and a harmonious oneness with all things.

When we are dealing with mistakes and errors of others, do not dwell on them, just simply pass them over if they are unintentional transgressions and forgive misdeeds right away.  Then conditions will ease and we can make our way back to ordinary conditions as soon as possible.

Quote: Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy and serenity.
