Still weeding olive trees and moving stones and rocks.

I know how convicts on chain gangs felt.

I was reading a book about Buddhism which we could chat about in the group. Oh happy birthday San i hope you had a beautiful day.
Mindfulness practice involves bringing sustained attention to the body and resting awareness on sensation during an emotional experience, which leads to a situation of exposure. Equanimity leads to non-reactivity, which then naturally prevents habitual maladaptive response behavior.
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.
Right thats me done.Off for a game of tennis and maybe a few drinks afterwards. :wave:

Wow Rocky you've summed it up in a nutshell! The wisdom eye which is also called the “third eye.” Pronounced "Turd eye". We often see in ancient deities people depicted with a third eye on their foreheads. The third eye is located between the other two eyes, and symbolizes that the wisdom eye is open. Peace and Love.
