Today I walked beside rivers and woodlands. And for once I looked around me and saw the world. Not just a distraction or a fleeting glance in my busy life, I took time to see what is missing, hidden, unless you take the time to look for it. 


Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars... and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful. Everything is simply happy. Trees are happy for no reason; they are not going to become prime ministers or presidents and they are not going to become rich and they will never have any bank balance. Look at the flowers—for no reason. It is simply unbelievable how happy flowers are.
