“In trusting, we let ourselves go. We know that all kinds of unexpected events may come our way. Our tension eases, our mind and our hearts open spontaneously to be possibilities. It is an ever new state of mind, in the present moment, because we have detached from all we know. But it is also a feeling as old as can be, because, before all betrayals and all disappointments, there was a time in which trusting another was the very substance of our life.” KnowsWayMindHeartKindMayStatesMomentsFeelingsOur LivesEventsPossibilityDisappointmentBetrayalAll KindsSubstanceEaseTensionUnexpectedPresent MomentState Of MindDetachedUnexpected Events Author:Piero Ferrucci
“If we live in the here and now, each moment is a surprise, every instant a new wonder. But it often fails to work this way. Onto the present we superimpose our expectations and opinions, based on the past or future. We meet someone, and we already anticipate what he/she will be like and what they will say.” IfsWayMomentsPastWonderOpinionFailingExpectationsSurpriseInstantHere And NowAnticipate Book:The Power of Kindness: The Unexpected Benefits of Leading a Compassionate Life--Tenth Anniversary Edition Source: The Power of Kindness: The Unexpected Benefits of Leading a Compassionate Life--Tenth Anniversary Edition
