Opportunities

March 28, 2012

Good Morning,

As the adage goes, change is the only constant. Our relationship to change directly impacts the way we experience life. Enjoy this offering from Pema Chodron.

When you open to the continually changing , impermanent, dynamic nature of your own being and of reality, you increase your capacity to love and care about other people and your capacity to not be afraid. You’re able to keep your eyes open, your heart open, and your mind open, And you notice when you get caught up in prejudice, bias, and aggression. You develop an enthusiasm for no longer watering those negative seeds, from now until the day you die. And you begin to think of your life as offering endless opportunities to start to do things differently, endless opportunities to dissolve the seeds of war where they originate-in the hearts and minds of individuals like you and me.

Look for the opportunities life presents you to keep your eyes, heart, and mind open. Every time we want to contract or avoid is an opportunity.
