Don't look for love in faces, places. It's in you that's where you'll find kindness (Ray Lamontayne)

Wie geht's?

So, here we are in 2021. I wonder what's in store for us all this year.

Decades ago, future thinkers wondered about what life in 2020 would be like. Here's what they came up with. Mostly they were pretty close to our reality, although no one specifically predicted a global pandemic.

Whatever the outside world looks like, I plan to start each day in 2021 the way I've started each day for the last three years - with that day's reading from 366 Days With Wisdom (by Venerable Master Hsing Yun).

January 1 is headed with this advice - Each day one needs to speak kind and gentle words. Each day one needs to do what is beneficial.

He goes on to say:

Begin from today! That means not to procrastinate. This day is very precious. Everything is best done today. Allow yourself to ensure that you live unto the fullest this day. We need to eat satisfactorily and rest well. Also, we should not put off till tomorrow what should be done today. Let us seize any available opportunity and time we have today!

We all need reminders like that, don't we?

Love and peace - WNP
