I have an apple that thinks its a pear. and a bun that thinks it’s a cat. and a lettuce that thinks its a lettuce." "it’s a clever lettuce, then." "hardly," she said with a delicate snort. "why would anything clever think it’s a lettuce?" "even if it is a lettuce?" i asked. "especially then," she said. "bad enough to be a lettuce. how awful to think you are a lettuce too.

When you plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, you don't blame the lettuce. you look for reasons it is not doing well. it may need fertilizer, or more water, or less sun. you never blame the lettuce. yet if we have problems with our friends or family, we blame the other person. but if we know how to take care of them, they will grow well, like the lettuce. blaming has no positive effect at all, nor does trying to persuade using reason and arguments. that is my experience. no blame, no reasoning, no argument, just understanding.

'ever seen a leaf - a leaf from a tree?' 'yes.' i saw one recently - a yellow one, a little green, wilted at the edges. blown by the wind. when i was a little boy, i used to shut my eyes in winter and imagine a green leaf, with veins on it, and the sun shining ...' 'what's this - an allegory?' "no; why? not an allegory - a leaf, just a leaf. a leaf is good. everything's good.'

The simplification of life is one of the steps to inner peace. a persistent simplification will create an inner and outer well-being that places harmony in one's life. for me this began with a discovery of the meaninglessness of possessions beyond my actual and immediate needs. as soon as i had brought myself down to need level, i began to feel a wonderful harmony in my life between inner and outer well-being, between spiritual and material well-being.
Spiritual Discovery Inner Peace
The individual man, in introspecting the fact of his own consciousness, also discovers the primordial natural fact of his freedom: his freedom to choose, his freedom to use or not use his reason about any given subject. in short, the natural fact of his "free will." he also discovers the natural fact of his mind's command over his body and its actions: that is, of his natural ownership over his self.
