If there were no freedom, beings could never disentangle themselves from the world. But since there is freedom to transcend the world, beings are able to become disentangled. -Anguttara Nikaya
It's inspirational quote day!!
You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand."
--- Woodrow Wilson
Some mornings as I drive to work, I wonder about my purpose. Oftentimes, I think of Wilson's words and I feel better.... and worse. absorb. squeeze.
