Reflection

" Sometimes we depend on other people as a mirror...
to define us..n tell us who we are....

and each reflection makes me like myself a little more..."

Rubayat

Ah, fill the cup-
what boots it to repeat;
how time is slipping underneath our feet..
Unborn tomorrow and dead yesterday
why fret about them, if today be sweet...

- Omar Khayyam (translated)

'Need'

One day a tree said to the soil,

"You have been such a support to me. You have given me all the nutrition and water; its you who has made me grow and be capable of giving others what I have. You have become a need for me. I wonder what would be your need?"

Soil answered,

"Being your need IS my 'NEED'...."

-Samruddhi

Thought

Any path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you... Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself and yourself alone, one question... Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't, it is of no use.

- Carlos Castaneda, The teachings of Don Juan
