IF NOT NOW, WHEN?

The Time Is NOW :D

We want something worthy so that when the time comes and our visa for life expires, we can all go happy! But so many people put off seeking that peace and happiness til "later", when they are done with their chase. And many leave it till it's entirely too late!



"WHEN SOMEONE SHOUTS AT YOU, WHEN SOMEONE SCOLDS YOU, WHEN SOMEONE IS RUDE TO YOU, WHEN SOMEONE HAS ABUSED YOU OR IS HURTING YOU, WHEN SOMEONE DOESN'T AGREE WITH YOU OR OPPOSE YOU... that's when you practise the "Dharma"... be patient :)

We always think, "I'll do something nice tomorrow. I'll put it off till tomorrow. It's too difficult. I'll d it when I'm ready."

But, "NO", we start right now!

"What matters is right now. How you re-act!"

Joy vs sadness
Harmony vs conflict
Commitment vs irresponsibility
Life vs death

In the Oxford Dictionary, PEACE = quiet, calm, harmonious relations, freedom from cessation of war, civil order.

"PEACE" is not about living in Paradise and Peace is not about clinging on to Attachments.


"ONE should not become too attracted to anything - and that includes not only material possessions but also family members"

"Right now, we may not be able to do anything about things happening on the outside, but we can do something about what is "within", here and around us."





"If we are going to pray for and benefit the world, we should start with the people we live with. We don't talk about world peace, we talk about the people we live with."


"Yes, your difficulties and your problems are genuine, they are real, but they will also pass."

Believing in yourself, don't complain, everyone has their own stories, just that, they handle it like how you are handling yours :D Not everyone is blessed with great health and great wealth, but think again, there are also not many people is blessed with 3 meals a day or clean water to drink, so you are just fortunate! Count your blessings :D
