Just know what is happening in your mind - not happy or sad about it, not attached. If you suffer see it, know it, and be empty. It's like a letter - you have to open it before you can know what's in it.

When we see beyond self, we no longer cling to happiness. And when we stop clinging, we can begin to be happy.

But when I know that the glass is already broken, every minute with it is precious.
