Wanted to share a little something...
Reading several threads this morning and this popped into my head.
It kind of ties into letting go and letting god and detachment.
“Sit quietly, doing nothing, spring comes, and the grass grows by itself.” – Zen Saying
Take what you want and leave the rest.

Thank you M1k3.
Why is it that this:
sounds so much easier to do than "Let go and let god?" Kind of a rhetorical question - I have my theories, main one being that I appear to still have trust issues with my HP...
The more I read about Buddhism and Zen and/or quotes, the more I'm drawn to it.

I love Zen!! thanks for this quote.
It is a real gift to be able to acknowledge the beauty of nature. I have noticed not many take notice of a bird chirping, summer breeze in the afternoon, wonderful green shades, colorful flowers... many are stuck in their belongings, fights, drama, status, paycheck...addictions...
