Smoke & Mirrors: Distractions and Focus

We are a consistently distracted Nation

Kindness Despite Disagreement

“Begin the morning by saying to yourself, I shall meet with the busybody, the ungrateful, arrogant, deceitful, envious, unsocial. All these things happen to them by reason of their ignorance of what is good and evil. … I can neither be injured by any of them, for no one can fix on me what is ugly, nor can I be angry with my kinsman, nor hate him.” -Marcus Aurelius

“This Too Shall Pass!” Living With Impermanence Through Hard Times.

“Thus strong wind does not last all morning.
Sudden rain does not last all day.
Even Heaven and Earth cannot make it last” -Tao Te Ching Chapter 23
