Mehm posted this on his FB. It's too good not to share. <3

Do not fight against pain; do not fight against irritation or jealousy. Embrace them with great tenderness, as though you were embracing a little baby. Your anger is yourself, and you should not be violent toward it. The same thing goes for all your emotions.

-Thich Nhat Hanh
 
^^^ wow, I love all three of the above quotes. I love to come in here and get something to meditate on as I go through the rest of my day and these three are gems. Here is one that I think I have posted in here before but I think I can't hear it enough. Imagining a world without shameful judgement starts with each of us.


“Oh, the comfort — the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person — having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.”
― Dinah Maria Mulock Craik, A Life for a Life

<3<3<3 For all my BL friends.
 
" Experience is not what happens to man, it is what a man does with what happens to him."
- Aldous Huxley.

sounds more like wisdom to me, or the difference between a good and bad experience, but to make it good takes either some luck, some wisdom, and some help, or all three.

When the mind maintain awareness Yet doesnt mingle w/ the senses
Nor the senses with sense impressions
Then self-awareness blossoms

The indweller is pure consciousness only
Which though pure
Sees through the mind and is identified by ego as being only the mind.
- Patanjali
 
Shared experience is no different then shared time; an experience learned from is a timeless one. Neither circular nor forward moving, time stands beside us all, our personal direction shapes its course.
 
"Man hath still either toys or care: But hath no root, nor to one place is tied, but ever restless and irregular, about this earth doth run and ride. He knows he hath a home, but scarce knows where; He says it is so far, that he has quite forgot how to go there."
- Henry Vaughan

These r two quotes i try to live my life by



John Lennon: “When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered “Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
 
"when you quit heroin, you feel like theres a hole in you like theres something missing" some guy on the Black Tar Heroin documentary
 
"I'm doing naughty things, I'm drinking too much, I'm going to clubs. It really didn't matter to me, other than the fact that some parents wouldn't let their kids hang out with me."
- Macaulay Culkin
 
"What do you feel like?"-Interviewer in the Krokodil article
