I have been chewing on a thought for some time now, and it is:
You cannot choose the family you are born into, but you can choose the family that you create.
The DNA connecting you is not enough to heal an unhealthy and broken relationship. The only responsibility that you have to any individual with whom you have a relationship, is to ensure you do what is needed to take care of you, thus keeping not only the relationship, but you healthy as well.

Reminding myself of my change is a daily thing. It is not as easy to keep the affected change – especially positive – without practice moment by moment.

You can’t see Tao, but it’s there.

If you keep using Tao, it works better.
If you keep talking about it, it won’t make any sense.
Keep cool.
6. Tao is an eternal mystery,
and everything starts with Tao.
Everybody has Tao in them.
They just have to use it.

Sometimes I would go to the refrigerator and it would be bare. Read more…
