Buddha’s first teachings.

“Because there’s no perfect place anywhere. One of the Buddha’s first teachings was that life is suffering. He didn’t just mean heartrending, painful, traumatic suffering, but something more basic than that. It doesn’t matter how good we have it or how basically happy we are, things arise every day that leave us feeling discontented or disappointed.”

Excerpt From The Dude and the Zen Master Jeff Bridges & Bernie Glassman https://books.apple.com/us/book/the-dude-and-the-zen-master/id529559015 This material may be protected by copyright.

You cannot appreciate truly what’s in front of you until its gone. You truly don’t understand what you have until its gone. When its gone you remember the details that made you feel happy or special.

One of the best feeling in life for me is the feeling of gratefulness. When you are feeling down or sad its hard to see and realize our blessings.

Quote on Doubt

“There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills.
Siddhārtha Gautama Buddha (500BC)”

Quote on vanity and pride.

“Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves; vanity, to what we would have others think of us.
Jane Austen (1775-1817)”

Quotes and wants

“My ideal gig is one that produces something I’m proud of at the end of it.” – Joe Coleman

I feel exactly like Joe Coleman a freelance copywriter. To produce something that you are proud of you have to overcome a challenge. It’s probably not going to be easy it could be simple but not easy. When you are proud of your work you have invested time, energy and soul. Take this message and apply to your daily work make sure that at end of the day you are proud of your actions.

What great description of what a job should feel like thanks Joe Coleman.

“Everyone loves me, I love everyone and there are no problems” … “I’m on the floor nothings exists, time don’t exist, matter don’t exist only a noticeable acceptance from a divine power.” Mike Tyson on psychedelics.

The reason I choose to share this quote is because it reminded me of meditating and being at peace or in love. Also its similar to when you are not thinking of anything you are in the moment. I have shared the feeling without any psychedelics its the feeling of happiness and thankfulness.

It’s not absolute the same but an example in the micro perspective. I go to a boxing gym and I don’t have a problem with anyone. Everybody is friendly to me and I’m friendly back that reminds of what Mike was talking about having no problems.

You can get to place with no problems and everyone around treating you with kindness and you feel that bliss that God made you and accepts you just the way you are. It’s about being thankful for the experience the good, bad and ugly.

“Every time someone gets you mad they own you“ Mike Tyson.

Again, Mike with some philosophy. I’m the person that won’t get troubled by anything because of my experience early in life. There comes a time where your spouse, family member or friend will do something to tick you off that’s a great time to remember if they got you mad they own you.

“No one can criticize me worse than I can myself” Mike Tyson.

This is the truth. No one knows you like you do. You know the truth and you can use it to make yourself better.
