[This is a quote from last week's talk that seemed to resonate with people. -w.o.]
Nothing Extra by Joan Halifax (Zen teacher):
Nothing Extra by Joan Halifax (Zen teacher):
"Some years ago, walking across the Himalayas, I
realized I would never make it over those mountains unless I let go of
everything extra. That meant I had to lighten up my mind as well as my
overloaded daypack. It all came down to one simple sentence: Nothing extra!
Just as these two legs carried me across mountains, those same words carry me
through complicated days. They always remind me to let go. They also remind me
of the weightlessness and ease of a whole and dedicated heart."
