QUOTES: Listening is loving

Only the closed mind is certain.

Listening is Loving

~*~

The moment we become truly aware of our heart, we feel comfort and release right away. Our heart has been working day and night, pumping thousands of gallons of blood to nourish all the cells in our body and preserve our peace, and we know that if our heart stops beating, we will die. But still, we do not take good care of our heart. We eat, drink, and work in ways that bring about tension and stress. When we touch our heart with mindfulness, we see clearly that a heart in good condition is an element of real peace and happiness; and we vow to live in a way that keeps our heart in good condition.

~Thich Nhat Hanh
(Living Buddha, Living Christ)
