The following quote is from 'Heart Advice, Weekly Quotes from Pema Chodron'.
BRING LIGHTNESS
"It's easy to become deadly serious about freeing ourselves from suffering.
People need help now, and we have to get ourselves in shape fast!
But in the so-called war against the kleshas (difficult emotions),
heavy-handedness is just another ego trip.
Instead of struggling, Shantideva suggests bringing some lightness into the equation.
Like children at play, like a hot elephant diving into a lake, like a joyful horse,
or a breeze of delight------bring enthusiasm to the task."
