Contrary to what would seem like logical thinking,
putting up your defenses actually inspires others
to put up their offenses.

MUST watch
This is a MUST watch for everyone -- Randy Pausch's commencement address in May 2008 at CMU. One can never be reminded too many times of the message...
Share
Share your knowledge.
It's a way to achieve immortality.
-- Dalai Lama
Common identity
If you and I find common ground as human beings,
we will communicate on a basic level.
If I say, "I am a monk,"or "I am a Buddhist," these are,
in comparison to my nature as a human being, temporary.
To be human is basic, the foundation from which we all arise.
You are born as a human being,
and cannot change that until death.
All else --
whether you are educated or uneducated,
young or old, rich or poor --
is secondary.
-- Dalai Lama

Live the Dream
Randy Pausch died today of complications from pancreatic cancer. I am reposting his "Last Lecture" in celebration of his life and the unintended legacy he left behind: Live and love each day, as if it is your last. Enjoy.
****
Randy Pausch is a 46 year old professor at Carnegie Mellon, who is dying of pancreatic cancer. He delivered his Last Lecture to an audience of over 40 students, and it has been widely downloaded on the internet. Randy appeared on Oprah and delivered a shortened version of this lecture. His message is exetremely powerful and uplifting, emphasizing the way we should all live!

You don't say....
I'm also not very analytical.
You know I don't spend a lot of time
thinking about myself,
about why I do things.

In memory ...
At a personal level, as a Buddhist practitioner,
I deliberately visualize and think about death in my daily practice.
Death is not separated from our lives.
Due to my research and thoughts about death,
I have some guarantee and some conviction
that it will be a positive experience.

Risk
Take into account that
great love
and
great achievements
involve
great risk.
