Dreaming
Knowing you are thinking means you are doing reflection.
Not knowing you are thinking means you are dreaming.

Don't
... have to compare yourself with others.
How can you compare an orange with an apple???
Every one of us is unique.

It's a choice
Scott: By the way, you don't have to knock every time you enter my room.
LY: Yes, I know I don't have to but I choose to do it.
I don't have to wake up very early on weekends, don't have to travel for 4 hours for my monastery visit, don't have to reply every text message, don't have to drop a major component of my research, don't have to .... yet I choose to do them.
It's always hard to go against the grain but not when you genuinely choose to do it.

Thought for the Day
It can be very haunting, beautiful but in a sad way, when you're committed to only one thing but unsure whether it will grant you the result that you desire.
Yet, it's hard to give it up.
A strong mind and a gentle heart, I think, are the two things that needed for this kind of journey.

When you get lemons, make lemonade!
Life may throw lemons at us sometimes. For example, what do we do when we meet unpleasant people who say things about us that we do not like to hear? Their words blemish our perceived self-story, which we had painted in our mind’s eye and convinced ourselves to be real. Immediately, our self-justifications come to the fore and our ego defends itself. We feel insulted, hurt and often lash out in anger. When the emotions pass, we are left with remnants of resentment or guilt. Where is Peace in all this? If we truly want to transform ourselves, we should cultivate patience and honesty. Lay down our ego and focus on the learning, not the feeling. In our own quiet time and space, we contemplate and reflect on the comments received. It is from the unpleasant encounters that one truly learns a valuable lesson. So when you get lemons, make lemonade!
