3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
The late Spring half-term break draws towards a close having not got much progress made but getting some important stuff out of the way.

I have adopted as my central philosophy of playing this character that the only worthwhile way to do so is to make a difference in the way I enjoy doing it. Obviously your circumstances limit the immediate options available, but you can find ways to do what you wish amidst the chores.

When I'm doing a job that isn't my preference, I can be alert for ways to exercise my creativity within it, and also for ways to promote my talents to others. I shall look for these opportunities with renewed vigour!

4. TODAY'S QUESTION FOR YOU
Are you alert for all the opportunities to make a difference that will arise today?

9. ZEN WISDOM
Peace is not found somewhere far away. Peace is found where there is caring. Peace is found when you bring joy instead of suffering. Peace is found when you reach out and make an effort to understand and embrace someone who is different from you.
