LESS IS MORE Your children do not need more. Each day adds more facts, more gadgets, more activities, more desires, and more confusion to their lives… - William Martin

Believe this difficult truth. Showing respect in the face of disrespect, love in the face of hate, trust in the face of betrayal, and serenity in the face of turmoil, will teach your children more than all the moral lectures by all the preachers since the dawn of time.

If you complain about politics, and gripe about taxes, and stew about the sorry state of things your children will learn to whine instead of laugh. If you can see in every moment a chance to live, and to accept, and to appreciate, your children will transform the world.

A movement that has no enemy? Must there be some “evildoer” we oppose? Can we oppose systems, habits, and structures without personifying them? Why create a personal enemy? The true “enemy” is the conditioned mind-set that oppresses all of us.
