No amount of thinking can stop thinking.
We are all continually asked to learn how to ask for what we need, only to practice accepting what we're given.
In a world that lives like a fist mercy is not more than waking with your hands open.
Rather than finding heaven on earth, we are asked to release heaven by living on earth.
The resource of life is everywhere, even in the smallest of things and we're never very far from it.
Whether you find it through mediation or sighing over tea or just turning all your devices off for five minutes, listening is an ancient lifeline by which we are awakened time and again. Once reawakened, we more easily find our way to each other, and so help each other live.
