Contemplative Monday


The following passage is from 'Heart Advice, Weekly Quotes From Pema Chodron'.

A SENSE OF POVERTY


"Hope and fear come from feeling that we lack something; they come from a sense of poverty.


We can't simply relax with ourselves.


We hold on to hope, and hope robs us of the present moment.


We feel that someone else knows what's going on,
 but that there's something missing in us, 


and therefore something is lacking in our world."
