Timeless…
I have got almost no time to blog, but I have to thank you all for the attention, comments and props!!
Meanwhile, here´s something I found and hope it adds anything…if it doesn´t, hope my ‘have a nice weekend ‘ wish makes any difference….
What I have in my hands..
Buddha got together with his disciples and showed them a Lotus flower, simble of purity, because it grows immaculate in swampy waters.
” I want you to tell me something about what i have in hands.”
The first made a whole speech on the importance of flowers.
The second composed a beautiful poem on its petals.
The third invented a parable using the flower as an example.
Then its Mahakashyap´s turn. He got next to Buddha, smelled the flower and carressed his face with one of the petals.
” It is a Lotus , simple and beautiful, as everything that comes from God.”, Mahakashyap said.
“You were the only one who saw what I have in my hands.”, that was Buddha´s comment.
Peace to you all.

Toc.Toc. Are you there? Pizza is getting cold.
“simple and beautiful – as everything from god”. as always, buddha gets it right, in the minimum possible words.
oh, wouldn’t it be so nice if we all tried to be like that. the way god created us… simple and beautiful.

“simple and beautiful – as everything by god”. as usual, the buddha gets it right in the minimum possible words.
wouldn’t it be so wonderful if we remain the way god created us – simple and beautiful.
hmmm.
