Leader

"A leader is most effective when people barely know he exists. When his work is done, his aim fulfilled, his troops feel they did it "

-Lao Tzu

When was I less by dying

I died as a mineral and became a plant,
I died as plant and rose to animal,
I died as animal and I was Man.
Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?

Rumi

With Every Breath

With every breath I take today, I vow to be awake;
And every step I take, I vow to take with a grateful heart
So I may see with eyes of love into the hearts of all I meet,
To ease their burden when I can And touch them with a smile of peace.

Buddhist prayer

The one you feed !

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said,"My son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorry, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith."
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee simply replied "The one you feed."

Living life within the confines of our head
