* Wu Hsin – What Is

table scraps

“Too much time is squandered on

What was and

What might be

Leaving only table scraps for

What Is”

Wu Hsin  from the Lost Writing of Wu Hsin translated by Roy Melvyn

Table scraps have their uses… yet are not enough.

    Needed this one today – been working on staying in the now the past couple of days, and I have such food issues that table scraps actually helped! LOL 🙂

      One breath and one step at a time Kate! Transitions are never easy, so the present moment becomes our touchtone…. even if its the scraps!

    That’s exactly the difficulty, to live here and now, but the “what is” is the only life we ever have.
