Wise Words

One minute of consciousness

Found this quote today and thought of the story we had posted a while ago, about the fishermen enjoying the sun.

The Dalai Lama was asked what surprised him the most; he said:
“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 he dies having never really lived.”

Our personal thought of the day....

Happy, relaxed and sunny greetings from La Vudèle, Provence
