“If you are pained by external things, it is not they that disturb you, but your own judgement of them. And it is in your power to wipe out that judgement now.” ~ Marcus Aurelius

Today’s Poem: Because one calls, a poem by Yagi Jukichi
Because one calls
Yagi Jukichi
Because one calls,
Something appears.
Because one does not call,
Something disappears.
What Do You See?
What do you see? Even when our vision is clear, we do not see everything in front of us, let alone what exists is our peripheral vision or behind us. What do you see? Each of us sees only partially what exists around us. We gain a clearer perspective when we ask others what they see (e.g., their opinion). The more people we ask the clearer and more accurate our estimation of what is true.
Today’s Power Thought ~ Be Well Suited for the Future
What we perceive as the truth today may not be the truth tomorrow. Things change. New knowledge is learned. When we approach life with an open mind and eyes willing to see, we can adapt to evolving situations. Don’t fear change or new knowledge. Adapt to it and you’ll be well suited for the future.
