“Maybe the fear is that
we are less than
we think we are,
when the
actuality of it
is that we are much much more.”
― Jon Kabat-Zinn, Arriving at Your Own Door: 108 Lessons in Mindfulness

18 people liked it

“Life on earth is a whole, yet it expresses itself in unique time-bound bodies, microscopic or visible, plant or animal, extinct or living. So there can be no one place to be. There can be no one way to be, no one way to practice, no one way to learn, no one way to love, no one way to grow or to heal, no one way to live, no one way to feel, no one thing to know or be known. The particulars count.”
― Jon Kabat-Zinn, Wherever You Go, There You Are
