Wow been a while since I posted! Our practice carries on, we meet each Monday evening in the new place on the high street. Join us! Drop me a line if you're curious. Anyway, here's a quote I was just via a publisher's mailing list, it kind of struck me:
To love, in the context of Buddhism, is above all to be there. But being there is not an easy thing. Some training is necessary, some practice. If you are not there, how can you love? Being there is very much an art, the art of meditation, because meditating is bringing your true presence to the here and now. The question that arises is: Do you have time to love?
(Thich Nhat Hahn, True Love)
