12.17.74

countless breaths since that day and in every breath a chance to be reborn and welcome life anew. all of it interdependent, all of it precious, all of it sacred, all of it a gift. all of it ready to be an offering 😌❤️🙏🏻

“Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it, I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others, to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings.”

~ HH The 14th Dalai Lama
