Slow down in your daily interactions, and recognize the suffering, and yearning for joy, in the people you talk to. They are busy too, and spending a few moments around someone (you) living with compassion will feel good, even if they don&#39;t know exactly what is going on.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diethard X.
