Thoughts.

"A lot of the pain we are dealing with,

are really only thoughts."



The Beloved.

"One went to the door of The Beloved and knock,

a voice answered; "who is there?"

he answered; 'it is I'.

the voice said;" There's no room for me and thee".

The door was shut.

After a year of solitude and deprivation,

the man returned to the door of the Beloved,

he knocked,

a voice from within asked; "who is there?"

the man said; 'it is Thou'.

The door was opened for him.

(Rumi)



Happiness goes away,...

"Happiness goes away the moment

we started to compare,...

happiness goes away the moment

we started to demand,...."

(Ven. Pannyavaro Mahathera)



Finding faults in others...

"He who blame others,

still has a long time to go,

He who blame himself,

is halfway there,

He who blame no one has arrived."

(Khalil Gibran)
