THE INTERNET IS ONE GREAT PLACE!

Look what I found while wandering around!
Two great quotes and one neat site....

First the quotes:

..................................................

On gratitude....

"At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us."

-Albert Schweitzer

...................................................

On Oneness...

Feelings, whether of compassion or irritation, should be welcomed, recognized, and treated on an absolutely equal basis; because both are ourselves. The tangerine I am eating is me. The mustard greens I am planting are me. I plant with all my heart and mind. I clean this teapot with the kind of attention I would have were I giving the baby Buddha or Jesus a bath. Nothing should be treated more carefully than anything else. In mindfulness, compassion, irritation, mustard green plant, and teapot are all sacred.

-Thich Nhat Hanh, "Miracle of Mindfulness"

......................................

And, one neat site!

Take some time to meander around this one for a while.

Check out the "quotes" pages.

Soul of the Garden is Beautiful!
