Making Peace.

Since I came home after 22 months away in BJ, I had tons of opportunity to "Take A Pause" and practice mindfulness at home although not that successful at many times, I will still continue putting in Right Effort.

As CNY is drawing closer, my siblings and I are facing quite a bit of conflicts with our parents at home due to different living habits but most of all our perceptions. I am humbly thankful to my parents for giving me this opportunity to practice mindful breathing heartfully from event to event moment to moment.

Breathing in,

I am aware I am breathing in.

Breathing out,

I am aware I am Breathing out.

"Breathing with awareness, peace comes naturally. The energy of mindfulness has the elements of attentiveness, concern, and friendship in it. Just by practicing awareness of your breathing, the person you are having difficulty with may notice there is a change taking place in you. Although you have not yet reopened communication or started the process of making peace with the other person, your peaceful energy has already had an effect on them. When we are aware of our breathing in and out, we are on the path to becoming more mindful, and mindfulness is the beginning of awakening." ~~TNH

温良恭俭让修的是恭敬，

恨怨仇争烦修的是感恩。

一呼一吸、恭敬感恩。
