Your genuine action will explain itself, and will explain your other genuine actions. Your conformity explains nothing. The force of character is cumulative. – Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance
If ‘the voyage of the best ship is a zigzag line of a hundred tacks,’ then it is more genuine to be present today than to recount yesterdays. How would you describe today using only one sentence? Tell today’s sentence to one other person. Repeat each day.
(Author: Liz Danzico)
One sentence:
When in doubt stop and remember that those who have not been touched by the Dharma cannot be expected to live by the Dharma and therefore compassion should prevail no matter how difficult that makes your life and practice for that in itself is the practice.
