Enlightenment


I was reading about zen practice this morning and came across this:

"The fundamental insight of the Buddha (the Awakened One) is this: life consists of suffering, and suffering is caused by attachment to the self, which is in turn attached to the things of this world. Only by liberating ourselves from the tyranny of perpetual wanting can we be truly free."

The last sentence reminds me of my wife.

I have the good fortune of seeing enlightenment in action everyday.

Thank you my love for modeling the way!
