Suffering
"Sometimes when we suffer, we blame another person — our partner, our son, our daughter, our parents — as the cause. But when we look deeply in mindfulness we can see that they too are suffering. We see that our enemy is not the person. It is the seed of despair, anger, frustration, or fear in us." – Thich Nhat Hanh

I love this quote. So often people jump to blame or conclusions rather than looking inward at the root of their fear or anxiety. When something is wrong, there are always places to turn for help or guidance. No one has to go through a difficult time alone. | http://rivieracounselling.com.au
