There’s not a word yet for old friends who’ve just met.

Open to whatever you experience without fighting. Let it be present just as it is. Let go of the battle.

Joy is not in things, it is in us.

Maybe who we are isn't so much about what we do, but rather what we're capable of when we least expect it.
