Deep Thoughts for your Sunday....

"I have arrived - I am home - My destination is each step" - Thich Nhat Hanh

Five Remembrances
  • I am of the nature to grow old. There is no way to escape growing old.

  • I am of the nature to have ill health. There is no way to escape ill health.

  • I am of the nature to die. There is no way to escape death.

  • All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change. There is no way to escape being separated from them.

  • My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground upon which I stand.

My Favorite Things

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
