Walking on Sunshine in the Rain
Just wanted to say that Saturday went off without a hitch. Although our true team captains didn’t show up. Oh well. LOL We all got the team picture taken on time and started off with a bang. Finished the walk in about an hour…not bad for a 5k. There were several cute guys there (two being a couple) and one that I nearly drooled over. LOL A lean, buff build (obviously ran a lot), tats and piercings…yummy! Anyway, me and the three girls I walked with had a blast, even chasing each other halfway down the sidewalk, joked about guys, love and life. It was a good morning to pass up Saturday cartoons. (listening to Gavin DeGraw “Follow Through”)
Will leave you this morning with some thoughts…..
Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive. ~His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama
I myself feel, and also tell other Buddhists, that the question of Nirvana will come later. There is not much hurry. If in day to day life you lead a good life, honesty, with love, with compassion, with less selfishness, then automatically it will lead to Nirvana. ~His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama
The universe that we inhabit and our shared perception of it are the results of a common karma. Likewise, the places that we will experience in future rebirths will be the outcome of the karma that we share with the other beings living there. The actions of each of us, human or nonhuman, have contributed to the world in which we live. We all have a common responsibility for our world and are connected with everything in it. ~His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama
Failure is only postponed success as long as courage "coaches" ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory. ~ Herbert Kaufman
Oh…and got me something new (even though I don’t wear them very often)…
