3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
With the week getting off to a comfortable and uplifting start, I still didn't get as much done as I would have liked, but like most days at home these days, I enjoyed it immensely! I am certainly not going to spoil my current good life by beating myself up over what I didn't get done. Now more than ever I am convinced that the lion's share of time, energy and resources are best invested in those who love you.

An attractive online “About Me” section in your online dating profile often includes a brief description of what you are passionate about or thankful for, a couple of things your friends say about you, qualities you are looking for in a potential partner, the first thing people notice about you (other than appearance), how you spend your leisure time, five things you can’t live without, and the latest good book you’ve read. 

9. ZEN WISDOM
Just as fire is extinguished by water, hatred can only be defeated by love and compassion.
