"To
stay with the shakiness - to stay with a broken heart, with a rumbling stomach,
with the feeling of hopelessness and wanting to get revenge - that is the path
of true awakening. Sticking with the uncertainty, getting the knack of relaxing
in the midst of chaos, learning not to panic - this is the spiritual path.
Getting the knack of catching ourselves, of gently and compassionately catching
ourselves, is the path of the warrior." Pema Chodron Artwork: Elizabeth Spring
