Fill what’s empty.
Empty what’s full.
Scratch where it itches.”

“Subhuti, someone might fill innumerable worlds with the seven treasures and give all away in gifts of alms, but if any good man or any good woman awakens the thought of Enlightenment and takes even only four lines from this Discourse, reciting, using, receiving, retaining and spreading them abroad and explaining them for the benefit of others, it will be far more meritorious. Now in what manner may he explain them to others? By detachment from appearances-abiding in Real Truth. -So I tell you-
Thus shall you think of all this fleeting world:
A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream;
A flash of lightening in a summer cloud,
A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.
When Buddha finished this Discourse the venerable Subhuti, together with the bhikshus, bhikshunis, lay-brothers and sisters, and the whole realms of Gods, Men and Titans, were filled with joy by His teaching, and, taking it sincerely to heart they went their ways.”
Gautama Buddha, Diamond Sutra
Kids... Why do they get up so early after a late night???
"Your not close until you hit it".
Go by this when riding and fourbying.
“It’s better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right.”

“Wear your ego like a loose fitting garment.”
Gautama Buddha
“If you want happiness for an hour take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime help someone else.”
If you have ever failed you have never lived.

“You will not be punished for your anger; you will be punished by your anger.”
