A Lot Of Harm Has

It Is A Form Of Violence, To Not See A Being For Who He Or She Really Is. You Think, "oh, That's My Son." But The Lens, "my Son," Completely Obliterates The Multi- Dimensions Of That Being. Maybe You Only See Your Disappointments In That Child, Or You Aspirations For That Child, But That's Not The Child.

Perhaps We Just Need Little Reminders From Time To Time That We Are Already Dignified, Deserving, Worthy.

Wherever You Go, There You Are. Whatever You Wind Up Doing, That's What You've Wound Up Doing. Whatever You Are Thinking Right Now, That's What's On Your Mind. Whatever Has Happened To You, It Has Already Happened. The Important Question Is, "how Are You Going To Handle It?" .... Like It Or Not, This Moment Is All We Really Have To Work With.

When You Have Children, You Realize How Easy It Is To Not See Them Fully, And Perhaps Miss All Those Early Years. If You Are Not Careful, You Can Be Too Absorbed In Work, And They Will Be Only Too Happy To Tell You About It Later. Being A Parent Is One Of Greatest Mindfulness Practices Of All.

Voluntary Simplicity Means Going Fewer Places In One Day Rather Than More, Seeing Less So I Can See More, Doing Less So I Can Do More, Acquiring Less So I Can Have More.
