Bits and Pieces

We must get to the stage where
we have nothing to work out,
and much to work on.

———

Our relationship to the people we hate
is as important as our relationship we have
with those we love.

———

Peace is the most important thing;
if you have it,
you do not need anything;
if you do not have it,
everything means nothing.

———

Most of us are not grown up,
yet neither are we children.
To become one or the other
is to become both,
to become one.


Awareness becomes crisp
when the echoes of memories
take their rightful place
as just that.

———

Things fade out of awareness. However,
by attending to those things more closely
the awareness becomes crisp,
and memories become just that:
memories.
