| Bowing to Life
To bow is to no longer hold ourselves apart from the unpredictable nature of all of our lives; it is to cultivate a heart that can unconditionally welcome all things. We bow to what is, to all of life. – Christina Feldman, “Long Journey to a Bow” |

| The thing we realize in practice is that if there’s something we need to know–a course correction, an insight, a way to do something “better”–Life will give us that information in a kind, compassionate, utterly non-judgmental way. We don’t have to worry about or figure out anything. We just keep our eyes firmly fixed on thisherenow and relax and be thrilled!

| This is a wild time to be alive. If you feel yourself being moved into position, you might justifiably feel terrified. My advice to you this month: Stop struggling. Relax. The signal to run is coming.

| I love the Buddhist concept of enlightenment as living without anxiety over imperfection. You can strain every fiber of your being trying to be flawless, only to face inevitable failure–or you can stop worrying about perfection, which instantly makes everything feel great.

| Giving Without Regret
Buddhism praises the value of generosity but warns that you shouldn’t give something away if you’re likely to be upset later and regret giving it away. Similarly, although it’s good to help others, we shouldn’t agree to do something for another person if it will likely lead us to feel exhausted, resentful, and angry at the other person. Each of us has to judge our own capacities and set our boundaries accordingly. – Lorne Ladner, “Taking a Stand” |

| The secret to happiness is finding the perfect balance between desire and gratitude.
What does your heart yearn for? What makes you so grateful you want to do cartwheels? Smack dab in the middle of those two lies happiness. – Lissa Rankin, Your Inner Pilot Light |

| “Compassion is comprised of that capacity to see clearly into the nature of suffering. It is that ability to really stand strong and to recognize that I’m not separate from this suffering… We actually aspire to transform suffering and if we are so blessed, we engage in activities that transform suffering… We cannot be attached to outcome.”

| Dear *[FNAME]*: |
 |
| One thing that helps in dealing with praise and blame is not to take things personally. Having yourself be the focus of everything can be seen as a kind of intoxication, distorting your perception of things as they actually are. Remind yourself that conditions are transient, that peoples’ opinions are subject to change, and that they may not praise or blame you with any real understanding of who you are or what you had in mind.
