Good morning.
We have barely come out of a gruesome institutional lockdown. But there is good in every bad and as uplifting as I am, I always try to keep busy and I was rummaging through my papers, I came across this beautiful Buddhist affirmation, that I could not withhold from you:
May I be free of suffering and the roots of suffering,
May you be free of suffering and the roots of suffering,
May we be free of suffering and the roots of suffering
May I find peace and the roots of peace,
May you find peace and the roots of peace,
May we find peace and the roots of peace
May I find joy and the roots of joy,
May you find joy and the roots of joy,
May we find joy and the roots of joy
May I find wellness and the roots of wellness,
May you find wellness and the roots of wellness,
May we find wellness and the roots of wellness
May I be free,
May you be free,
May we be free
[ancient Buddhist affirmation]
