again another extract from my fav book "Eat.Pray.Love"...
this is my favorite:
"We search for happiness everywhere, but we are like Tolstoy's fabled beggar who spent his life sitting on a pot of gold, under him the whole time. Your treasure--your perfection--is within you already. But to claim it, you must leave the buy commotion of the mind and abandon the desires of the ego and enter into the silence of the heart."
i shared this quote with hubbie when we went for a jog again last night. when doing the warm-up exercises, i happened to lift my head and saw many many stars! so nice.. how many times have we ever taken a time off our busy schedule to enjoy the night sky? its a luxury just being able to sit down calmly to "mediate" and let loose...
i also embarked on one of my past yr resolution and that is to learn japanese language...enrolled ourselves for lessons every sat evening...its a 3 hours lesson every time..guess that is going to be very "xiong" for us since we have not been studying for so many years...how will it feels like?
