We should live everyday like people who have just been rescued from the Moon. – Thich Nhat Hanh. @thichnhathanhquotecollective #thaysaid #thichnhathanhquotecollective #thichnhathanh #buddhistquotes
I find this quote so profound today. Imagine living on the Moon your entire life and then seeing the Earth and all it beholds for the first time? The colours of the grass and the sky, the feel of a warm summer’s breeze on your skin for the first time etc.
EVERYTHING would be something new, beautiful, incredible, never seen nor sensed before…. and that is the teaching here. Living in mindfulness, our every day should be the birth of an incredible lifelong journey, an experience, a memory, a joy, a life of amazement, beauty, love, a renewed appreciation of nature and deep gratitude for ALL the blessings in our life.
Me myself, I will never look at the Moon quite the same again…
