Do you have the patience to wait
till your mud settles and the water is clear?
Can you remain unmoving
till the right action arises by itself?–Tao Te Ching
Here is a wonderful article focusing on mindful parenting. Read it with your morning coffee, tea or a large glass of clear water (I like mine with smidge of lemon, and it’s good for your digestion as well!).
If you are not a parent, substitute your boss at work as the children in the story, or your partner, or your neighbor…perspective is everything.
