Pure Freedom
The practice of generosity is the practice of freedom, and it carries with it all the joy and pleasure that are associated with liberation. Indeed, there may be no greater sense of fulfillment in life than the simultaneous feelings of human interconnection and pure freedom that arise from an authentic act of selfless generosity. – Dale S. Wright, “The Bodhisattva’s Gift” |

Dear *[FNAME]*: |
Dear One, I have good news and bad news. However you’re feeling right now, this too shall pass. In fact, if you let yourself purely feel the emotion without complicating it with language, whatever you feel will most likely end in about ninety seconds. If you’re sad, it’s fleeting. (Phew!) If you’re blissed out, it won’t last either. (Bummer.) If you’re enraged, it will move through you. (Grrrrr.) If you’re bursting with obsessively romantic fervor, the crush will fade. (Sigh . . .) Find comfort in this, darling. States are fleeting, but it’s possible to have a deeper level of joy that is not dependent on transient states. When you’re not grasping for feelings you like and resisting feelings you don’t like, you’re more likely to find gratitude in the moment for whatever experience of human emotion you’re blessed to feel right now. Don’t like how you feel in this present moment? Don’t worry. I’m here with you every ninety seconds. Nothing lasts but me, Your Inner Pilot Light – Lissa Rankin, MD, Your Inner Pilot Light |

Dear *[FNAME]*: |
“We say we want to strike against terror, we want to destroy terrorism, but do we even know where to find it? Can we locate it with a radar? Can the army find terrorism using its night goggles and heat sensors? Misunderstanding, fear, anger, and hatred are the roots of terrorism. They cannot be located by the military. Bombs and missiles cannot reach them, let alone destroy them, for terrorism lies in the hearts of human beings. To uproot terror, we need to begin by looking at our own hearts. We don’t need to destroy each other, either physically or psychologically. Only by calming our minds and looking deeply inside ourselves will we develop the insight to identify the roots of terrorism. With compassion and communication, terrorism can be uprooted and transformed into love.”As we cultivate the seeds of joy and transform the seeds of suffering in ourselves, understanding, peace, love and compassion will flower. – Thich Nhat Hanh |

Dear *[FNAME]*: |
Open to It All
Become still, quiet the mind, sit like the mountain and sky–stable and undivided in the face of everything that comes up. Open to the unpleasant part, the down-in-the-dumps part, the making-mistakes part, the prolonged-aching-in-the-heart part. The not knowing and the bouts of joy. Become one in the same as yourself, or “one with” your life – Diane Musho Hamilton, “Practice Is the Way” |

Dear *[FNAME]*: |
How to Practice Sympathetic Joy
In the Buddha’s teachings, sympathetic joy or being happy for another’s happiness (Pali: mudita) is one of the four brahmaviharas, the four highest qualities of the heart. In recent years, the other three–loving-kindness, compassion, and equanimity–have received quite a lot of attention from practitioners, researchers, and the press alike. But sympathetic joy has gotten little attention. How can that be? Shouldn’t joy be the most appealing of the heart qualities? Not necessarily. Traditionally it is often referred to as the most difficult of the four. Sympathetic joy is complicated. – Christiane Wolf, Lion’s Roar |
