Love that one from Gandhi! The ocean and water give us a beautiful metaphor for many aspects of life and living! I have one on my bb about the 'pure salt as the pain of life'. "If you take a tablespoon of salt and put it in a glass of water, you taste the bitter salt. But if you take the tablespoon and place it in a lake, you taste freshness. It is not that amount of pain we have, but the vessel we put our pain into that changes our experience." This story helps remind me to get out of my self-pity and get out in the world, in the community to lend a hand to friends to volunteer - to expand.

"One must still have chaos in oneself
to be able to give birth
to a dancing star"
-- Nietzche
