Within me are two wolves. One wishes to become a social worker in order to implement gradual progress within the system. The other wants to buy a gas mask and help the revolution. My God, neither will stop eating.

It is not controlling ourselves we must move towards. It's understanding ourselves. When this is done, there will be nothing to control.

The best way to get through a tough time is to keep moving through it. To resist it leaves you stagnating in the midst of unwanted circumstances. Get it done, even if you dislike it. Get through, and on the other side you'll be able to see it for what it was.

Take your time, and take time off. Endless productivity is impossible, and therefore unreasonable to set as a standard for yourself. You're allowed to waste your own time, rest and return later.

UN says Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
As does Amnesty, ICJ, Israeli human rights org B'TSalem, hundreds of global humanitarian orgs, & virtual every global scholar on genocide.
If you're still in denial, it means either every global org is lying—or you're on the wrong side of history.

The drive to optimize every experience, to achieve the highest standards, to succeed in every task, ultimately leaves us coming up short. While ambition by itself is healthy, one must avoid attaching their happiness to outcomes.

Mindfulness is being present in yourself and of yourself. Being aware and making decisions outside of reaction is how it's expressed.

Understanding is not enlightenment. Living and working from emptiness is not enlightenment. Enlightenment is living amongst other in love and compassion. Enlightenment is not only for the practitioner, as it requires those outside of oneself to express.

There are many causes worth fighting for, but one can't fight every battle with their whole being. You'll be spent before you know it and have little to show for it. Focus your effort, one thing at a time, fully and presently. We save the world one battle at a time.

To wish for things to be "the way they used to be" is a life lie that all can find themselves under the sway of. Pining for the past is little more than begging to go backwards. Find acceptance of the present to find your power in it.

All problems are simple. Either you can solve it, and there's no reason to worry anymore, or you can't solve it, and there's no need to worry anymore. Stop trying to solve problems you can't; it steals focus and energy from solving the ones you can.

No one likes negative experiences, but no one can avoid them either. Preemptive acceptance of normative disappointment is a powerful vaccine against the ills of unhappiness.

Rules and expectations are things we impose upon others. Boundaries and standards, we impose on ourselves. To know the difference helps us take responsibility for our happiness.

The moments we tend to log away in our mind are more often negative experiences. To have more positive experiences, look at the moments in-between those moments. Mindfulness will bring them forward.

There's a reason every major religion has "the Golden Rule": it's foundationally good. Whatever you learn or achieve, however you practice spirituality, whatever enlightenment you achieve, it's all worthless if you can't treat others with dignity and respect.

When you fall from a cliff, you can't grab the ledge with your hands full of something. When falling into bad days and hard times, one can't grasp peace if their hands are full of ingratitude and self-pity.

To be at peace, be present in yourself. Respect your self. Keep your boundaries. Express yourself openly. Learn from everyone and try to teach through relationships. The world is all here, so join it fully.

Sorrow and grief are never pleasant, but natural. They are left behind when a source of great love leaves us. And like the love, it must be felt fully, accepted as loves price. Only then can you be free of it. Hold it long enough to let it go.
