When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers  (Thich Nhat Hanh Quotes) Being rich is an obstacle to loving. When you are rich, you want to continue to be rich, and so you end up devoting all your time, all your energy, in your daily life to stay rich  (Thich Nhat Hanh Quotes) The present moment is filled with joy and happiness.
