The Awakening


Winter had to leave.
Spring is too promising
to be buried
under f00t of
dead-white snow.

Greens wake up
after a long long slumber
and so do the song birds.
The chill air gives way
to warm breeze
purifying the atmosphere
with life within and without.

That's the power
of faith.
The secret
of universe unfolds.

Thought


"Miser do not go to heaven;

Fools indeed do not praise liberality

But the wise rejoice in giving

And thereby gain happiness thereafter"

Dhammapada 177

Truth

Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.
