26.4.09

26 Apr - 3 May 2009

The general theme for the next few weeks will be in the areas of struggle and also of pain: how do we continue to have a positive attitude if we are struggling with work (a project, research revising for exams or routine tasks), or when life becomes difficult. I will begin with a quotation from an unlikely source, Dolly Parton; and yet she expresses an attitude which can be found in many religions:
“The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain”.
Dolly Parton (born 1946, singer-songwriter and actress).

You may like to respond with a quotation or idea from your own world-view or religion.
