Living Vigorously. (Above, sign on the Cambridge Pantry Wall.)

“Mindfulness practice is not an evasion or an escape. It means entering vigorously into life – with the strength generated by the energy of mindfulness. Without this freedom and concentration, there is no happiness.”

–Thich Nhat Hanh, Your True Home.

“From MJ in Idaho: Hi Jon, do you realize the impact you are making in the many areas you reach? For instance, I live in Idaho and have chosen to donate to our local food banks because your efforts show a great need. Your daily reminders get me purchasing double of what is on Sarah’s list. I keep one and donate the other. Your work with the nursing home got me to visit our local ones and see how I could help. You are a great inspiration, Jon. You keep your readers on their toes. Thanks! MJ”

–Thanks MJ that’s a wonderful message to get, I appreciate your sending it to me.
