I warn you. Unless I get to the beach soon, there will be a bunch of beach pics posted until I do.
Amazing to me how threatened people can be by things they know nothing about.
“Your soul doesn’t care what you do for a living - and when your life is over, neither will you. Your soul cares only about what you are being while you are doing whatever you are doing.”

On my way to New Orleans to see the Dalai Lama tomorrow. Really looking forward to it.
That's excellent! Do you also adhere to the classical Buddhist teachings stressed in Theravada about reliance and self-effort in order to attain salvation?
You lost me at “Buddhist” and “salvation.”

“I don’t think the way you think.
The way you work isn’t the way I work.”
God’s Decree.
“For as the sky soars high above earth,
so the way I work surpasses the way you work,
and the way I think is beyond the way you think.”
Isaiah 55:8-9, The Message

“Peace can exist only in the present moment. It is ridiculous to say “wait until I finish this, then I will be free to live in peace.” What is “this”? A diploma, a job, a house, the payment of debt? If you think that way, peace will never come. There is always another “this” that will follow the present one. If you are not living in peace at this moment, you will never be able to. If you truly want to be at peace, you must be at peace right now. Otherwise, there is only “the hope of peace some day.”
