You become for it

" Sometimes the greatest thing

to come out of all your hard work

isn't what you get for it,

but what you become for it. "

有時候，你辛辛苦苦付出後，最棒的結果，

不在你得到的東西，而在你自己為此變成了一個更不一樣的人！

The awakened mind

寂靜
就是真空

那兒是
喚醒心靈的家
釋迦牟尼佛陀

Silence
is an empty space,
spaceis the home
of the awakened mind.
Buddha

One day, a rich Dad took his son on a trip to show him how poor people lives. They spent time on the farm of a poor family. On the way to home,Dad asked to his son; How poor they are? What did you learn from this trip? Son said….. We have one dog, they have 4 of them. We have a pool, they have a river. We have tube-lights at night, they have stars. We buy food, they grow. We have walls to protect us, they have friends. We have television, they spend time with family and relatives. Then he added: Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are….!
