I got hooked on a show that was big in the UK (but totally unknown over here) called The Vicar of Dibley; brilliant comedy about on of the first female Vicars (Priests) in the UK.
I can't recommend it highly enough; you can get it on Netflix, so check it out!
My emotional ping pong is smoothing out with the change in the moon phase (as I knew it would); and needless to say I am thankful!
I know what Mr. Spock feels like during pon farr now (shout out to my fellow geeks, there!)
“Do everything with a mind that lets go. Do not expect any praise or reward. If you let go a little, you will have a little peace. If you let go a lot, you will have a lot of peace. If you let go completely, you will know complete peace and freedom. Your struggles with the world will have come to an end.
Someone commented, I can observe desire and aversion in my mind, but its hard to observe delusion.
You're riding on a horse and asking where the horse is! was Ajahn Chah's reply.
Just know yourself, this is your witness. Don't make decisions on the strength of your desires. Desires can puff us up into thinking we are something which we're not. We must be very circumspect.â€
-Ajahn Chah
And remember:
Never give up, never give up, never ever ever give up.
