More From Nhat Hanh

A flower is not a flower. it is made only of non-flower elements - sunshine, clouds, time, space, earth, minerals, gardeners, and so on. a true flower contains the whole universe. if we return any one of these non-flower elements to its source, there will be no flower.

And now you ask in your heart, ‘how shall we distinguish that which is good in pleasure from that which is not good?’ go to your fields and your gardens, and you shall learn that it is the pleasure of the bee to gather honey of the flower, but it is also the pleasure of the flower to yield its honey to the bee. for to the bee a flower is a fountain of life, and to the flower a bee is a messenger of love, and to both, bee and flower, the giving and the receiving of pleasure is a need and an ecstasy. * people of orphalese, be in your pleasures like the flowers and the bees.

A wonderful thing happens when you give up on hope, which is that you realize you never needed it in the first place. you realize that giving up on hope doesn't kill you, nor did it make you less effective. in fact it made you more effective, because you ceased relying on someone or something else to solve your problems - you ceased hoping your problems somehow get solved, through the magical assistance of god, the great mother, the sierra club, valiant tree-sitters, brave salmon, or even the earth itself - and you just began doing what's necessary to solve your problems yourself.

Things happen in my physical body, in my relationships. i've buried three fathers and a mother. i've had a doctor tell me i've got a tumor in my brain. and when you face those situations, they transform you, they change you, and when you're able to break through them to a new level, they allow you to have gifts to give other people.
