Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV

Look hard to keep intimacy alive:
The story of human intimacy is one of constantly allowing ourselves to see those we love most deeply in a new, more fractured light. Look hard. Risk that.

Helen Keller on a pessimist...
WORD FOR THE DAY
No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.
HELEN KELLER
Mindful Caregiving:
If God said, "Rumi, pay homage to everything that helped you enter my arms,"
there is not one experience in my life, not one thought, not one feeling,
not any one action I would not bow to.
~Rumi
You are enough.
~Thich Nhat Hanh
We are the pivotal generation.
~Dalai Lama
Being more aware of our present moment experience also helps with self-care, something that caregivers often overlook. With a mindfulness practice you can notice sooner when you feel tired, or are having an emotional experience, and make sure you stop and look after yourself.

Still, it is more important to be a Human BEING, than a Human "doing". And some enjoy a balance between the two....
There are many fine things which you mean to do some day, under what you think will be more favorable circumstances. But the only time that is yours is the present.

DARE TO BE POWERFUL:
When I dare to be powerful — to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.
