    If you ever think that thing your worried about right now is important, just check: If your problem is something similar to this: It’s bullshit.

  • On Contentment - On Gratitude

    Are there degrees of contentment? Can you be more content (or less) compared to other times?

    September 14, 2017 - By Dave

    To you, all you have seems small: to me, all I have seems great. Your desire is insatiable, mine is satisfied. See children thrusting their hands into a narrow-necked jar, and striving to pull out the nuts and figs it contains: if they fill the hand, they cannot pull it out again, and then they fall to tears.—’Let go a…
