Mind of Light

A drop of water has the tastes of the water of the seven seas: there is no need to experience all the ways of worldly life. The reflections of the moon on one thousand rivers are from the same moon: the mind must be full of light.

-- Hung Tzu-ch'eng (1593-1665)

Question: How do you keep a drop of water from drying?

Answer: By throwing it back into the sea.

Sometimes a single word, a simple look and one constructive sentence can cause a massive ripple in your awareness.
