Connection, Addiction, Worthiness, and Blur.

It is the vital fluid that keeps all relationships, regardless of their depth or duration, salient and purposeful.

Compassion Over Judgement

One of the most valuable lessons I have learned from Sri Dharma is observing him love all beings unconditionally - without judgement. I strive to love in the same way. It isn't easy and it requires constant monitoring of the ego. It is also another way to practice being present. You notice your thoughts as they are forming; you choose silence over speaking; and you think before you act.
