NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 751

 

  • ·       “When you love someone, you have to offer that person the best you have. The best thing we can offer another person is our true presence.” .” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

    ·       “The function of mindfulness is, first, to recognize the suffering and then to take care of the suffering. The work of mindfulness is first to recognize the suffering and second to embrace it. A mother taking care of a crying baby naturally will take the child into her arms without suppressing, judging it, or ignoring the crying. Mindfulness is like that mother, recognizing and embracing suffering without judgment.” .” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

    ·       “The art of happiness is also the art of suffering well.” .” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

    ·       “People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don’t even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child—our own two eyes. All is a miracle.” .” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

    ·       “Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

    ·       “Waking up this morning, I smile. Twenty-four brand new hours are before me. I vow to live fully in each moment and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
