“Often we do not see that we have all the conditions necessary for happiness, and we go looking for happiness in another place or in the future.

 

To be able to breathe can be a great source of real happiness, but often, unless we have a congested nose or asthma, we are not able to realize that.

 

To be able to see beautiful colours and forms is happiness, but often only after we have lost our sight do we become aware of this.

 

Having sound and healthy limbs to be able to run and jump, living in an atmosphere of freedom, not being separated from our family - all these things and thousands more can be elements of happiness.

 

Awareness of these precious elements of happiness is itself the practice of Right Mindfulness.

We can use conscious breathing to shine light on their presence.

 

Without mindfulness, we live like the dead.

And every time mindfulness is born, we are born again into the Pure land of Buddha, into the Kingdom of God.”

 

—Thich Nhat Hanh, excerpt from “True Love a practice for Awakening the Heart.”
