“For many of us, the computer is the means by which we earn a living. To give it a nod, then, is a way of thanking the tool for what it provides in life. It helps put bread on the table and a roof overhead. It gives us work and pleasure, exercises our minds, brings us information, connects us with other people. It is a partner helping us achieve our goals. Nodding also thanks the unseen hands and minds who helped create our machine.” PeopleWayGivingMindMeanHelpingHandsGoalPleasureAchieveInformationExerciseGratitudeComputerToolsMachinesTablesPartnersBreadThanksRoofUnseenOverheadNodding Author:Philip Toshio Sudo
“When practiced to its fullest, mindful eating turns a simple meal into a spiritual experience, giving us a deep appreciation of all that went into the meal's creation as well a deep understanding of the relationship between the food on our table, our own health, and our planet's health.” GivingWellsMotivationalSpiritualTurnsUnderstandingSimpleCreationPlanetsEatingTablesAppreciationMealsOur PlanetSpiritual ExperienceDeep Understanding Author:Nhat Hanh
“It is ignorance that is at times incomprehensible to the wise; for instance, he may not see 'the positive person' or 'the negative person' in a black and white way as many people do. A wise man may not understand it because, as a catalyst of wisdom, but not wise in his own eyes, even he can learn from and give back to fools. To think that an individual has absolutely nothing to offer to the table is counter-intuitively what the wise man considers to be 'the ignorance of hopelessness'.” PeopleThinkingMenWayGivingMayPersonsEyeIndividualBlackWhiteWiseIgnoranceFoolOffersNegativeTablesInstanceBlack And WhiteHopelessnessGiving BackAbsolutely NothingCatalystPositive Person Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
