If love is in our hearts, every thought, word, and deed can bring about a miracle. Because understanding is the very foundation of love, words and actions that emerge from our love are always helpful.
Nhat HanhEvery morning, when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand-new hours to live. What a precious gift!
Nhat HanhThe most precious gift we can offer anyone is our attention. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.
Nhat HanhBreathe in deeply to bring your mind home to your body. Then look at, or think of, the person triggering this emotion: With mindfulness, you can see that she is unhappy, that she is suffering. You can see her wrong perceptions. You can see that she is not beautiful when she says things that are unkind.
