I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death.

~Thomas Paine

Cultivating a generous spirit starts with mindfulness. Mindfulness, simply stated,
means paying attention to what is actually happening; it's about what is really going on.

Nell Newman

Spirit Dancer · 04-04-2010, 09:42 AM

Mindfulness makes our eyes, our heart, our non-toothache, the moon, and the trees
deep and beautiful. And when we touch our suffering with mindfulness, we begin
to transform it. Mindfulness is like a mother holding her baby in her arms and caring
for her baby’s pain. When our pain is held by mindfulness it loses some of its strength. . . .
Mindfulness recognizes what is there, and concentration allows you to be deeply
present with whatever it is. Concentration is the ground of happiness.
If you live twenty-four hours a day in mindfulness and concentration, one day is a lot.
Thich Nhat Hanh
