Cheerfulness

From THIS book:

No "I"

Just as a man who steps upon a serpent shutters in fear but then looks down and notices it is only a rope, so it was that one day I realized that what I was calling “I” cannot be found, and all fear and anxiety vanished with my mistake.

The BUDDHA

*it was interesting to me how this statement can be directly related to the basic principle of Christianity of not being self centered, understanding that God created man to serve Him through serving others on Earth and not be serving our own self interests - remembering that we are all part of the body of Christ and not individuals...

Seeing

There are three classes of people. Those who see; those who see when they are shown; those who do not see.

Leonardo Da VINCI

Wise

The foolish reject what they see, not what they think; the wise reject what they think, not what they see.

HUANG-PO

Commit to submit.

Commit to submit.

Understanding

This was the lesson I learned in church last Sunday:

Don't insist on understanding, just be faithful.

Detail Oriented

Detail Oriented = Disposed to the relentless pursuit of perfection and precise outcomes.

Generous

From this book:

Pay attention

The capacity for delight is the gift of paying attention.

Julia Margaret CAMERON

Judgement

Do not judge or criticize others. Just be at ease and go on mindlessly like a simpleton or a fool. Or, be like one who is struck deaf and dumb. Spend your life as if you cannot hear a thing, or like an infant. Then, sooner or later, all delusion will disappear.
