So as long as the mind is comparing, there is no love, and the mind is always judging, comparing, weighing, looking to find where the weakness is. So where there is comparison, there is no love. When the mother and father love their children, they do not compare them, they do not compare their child with another child; it is their child and they love their child. But you want to compare yourself with something better, with something nobler, with something richer, so you create in yourself a lack of love. You are always concerned with yourself in relationship to somebody else. As the mind becomes more and more comparative, more and more possessive, more and more depending, it creates a pattern in which it gets caught, so it cannot look at anything anew, afresh.
.
And so it destroys that very thing, that very perfume of life, which is love.

The worst smell that can be produced on the face of this planet is rotten broccoli. Oh the joys of cleaning out the fridge…

I took this picture off of my friend’s facebook.
This is a picture of a lady that works at the 24-hour Burger King on campus and she’s probably the sweetest lady ever. Every day I’ve been there she never seems to be in a bad mood, which makes me simultaneously admire and feel guilty that someone her age is still working. I’m in college, I’m young, I complain and I get in bad moods, and here is this elderly lady, working a minimum wage job, who is happy and content with life. I’m envious. She’s found her place, whether or not it was her most desired destination, and she’s happy.She’s comfortable with herself. Here I am, upset about my vague future and impending finals, complaining about things that don’t go my way.
She definitely deserved those flowers she received from random UCSD students that day & yet she still deserves so much more for her pleasant disposition. The funny thing is, she seems to be perfectly content where she’s at; not wanting any more than what she has. That’s beautiful.
I hope I can find that some day.
I remember when my suitemates and i would go to Burger King last year and see her working and we would talk about how we if we ever won the lottery we would give her a mill to just chillax. but now, that seems kinda silly, because she seems happy and content. (but im sure she won’t mind the 1 mill).
anyway, the random flowers from ucsd students was hella nice. and my homie andrew oh took a picture. if only we got more coverage for nice shit like this than stuff say like compton cookout. haha
I couldn’t help but also comment. She is the sweetest lady ever!!! I would tell Bryan how 불상해 I felt for her, but at the same time.. how humbling it was to see her work with a smile even through late night hours. I want to give her a hug next time I see her

I am so unbelievably overwhelmed at the thought of saying goodbye to all the 3rd and 4th years. I’ve been feeling very sad these past few days, although at the same time, I’ve been finding so many reasons to rejoice for all the good things He has been providing for me lately. I’m just really bad at letting go of things. Oh let this be my prayer.. “God grant me serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.”
