Every introvert self-help book has the same chapter on “boundaries,” complete with polite little scripts, as if we owe everyone an explanation for existing.

What I actually do?
I leave without announcing it
I don’t reply to texts I don’t want to answer
I don’t open the door to unannounced visitors

Care

Calm and gentle speech;
Unhurried conversations,
With full attention.

Meditation gives us a way to see the slipperiness of our mind and of our notion of “me” Practicing meditation, we gradually accustom ourselves to how experiences constantly flow. We see that this happens even though we can’t pinpoint a subject who experiences them #pemachodron

Mind without projection is mahamudra.

Train and develop this and you will come to the deepest awakening.

The unconditional kindness of #Islam

You’ve got to love how these guys just come out of nowhere, to help the crazy white man stuck in the desert. It’s these kinds of memories that I will take away when I leave #Dubai - much more than any mall, fancy hotel or tall building.

When the past calls you, let it go to voicemail.

Believe me, it has nothing new to say.

We all have to face the consequences of the choices that we make. That’s karma right there. Guilt is not helpful - especially if that leads to defensiveness, anger and the blaming of others. As John Lennon sang we all have to “feel our own pain” - that’s where the healing lies.

If you can’t spend quality time with somebody, don’t spend any time with them. Look after your mental health.

Take a photo out of your window or from wherever you are right now - let’s guess where we’re all living 🤷

Step off the treadmill
Relentless repetition
Find your heart; your home
