Sayings I felt I needed to share....

It is only through letting our heart break that we discover something unexpected: The heart cannot actually break - it can only break open ...
To live with an open heart is to experience life
full-strength.

John Welwood


This one, when I read it, I thought of my Auntie La <3 <3
Coming empty-handed, going empty-handed -- that is human.
When you are born, where do you come from?
When you die, where do you go?
Life is like a floating cloud which appears.
Death is like a floating cloud which disappears.
The floating c
loud itself originally does not exist.
Life and death, coming and going, are also like that.
But there is one thing which always remains clear.
It is pure and clear, not depending on life and death.

Then what is the one pure and clear thing?

Zen Master Seung Sahn
