Anger
“Buddhism describes getting angry
as being like picking up a red-hot coal in your bare hands to throw at someone
else. I remember one occasion on which His Holiness The Dalai Lama was asked
whether it was ever useful or legitimate to get angry with someone else. He sat
in silence for several minutes, exactly like a chess player meditating on the
consequences of all the possible moves, and then having exhausted all the
possibilities, he simply said, ‘No.”

My greatest hope
My greatest hope is to laugh as
much as I can, whenever I can. To be happy. To have work for my hands that
brings me fulfillment. To love someone with passion.
Here's my motto
