It's just another day for me. I was surprised when I looked up Friday the 13th to see the number of people who do have reactions to the date. The only time I think of 13 at all is when I purchase donuts or bagels. Is it a bakers dozen or a dozen for that price?
Dark chocolate is my favorite as well. I agree totally unadulterated chocolate is the only way to go. My husband teases me about a purist. My ice cream unadorned, my coffee black... no sweeteners or creamer for me.
"It would almost be arrogant to assume that out of countless billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars, and an increasing number of confirmed exoplanets, Earth is the only place where life has emerged." I have this argument with my mother constantly
Brahmajna Ma: Without busying himself to seek out enjoyment, and luxury for himself, his wife and children, a householder should look after the peace and happiness of the whole family and help the neighbors to the best of his ability: without giving too much attention to wife and children he should help the needy and poor and feel happy and sorry for all. Far from doing any harm to others, it is the duty of a householder to see that the thought of harming others doesn’t even find a place in his mind, and also not to be jealous when others obtain peace and happiness.
A jealous man suffers from his own jealousy and also causes others to suffer. Do not pay back malice nor harm anybody in return for malice. A wrongdoer reaps the fruit of his own actions. Always try to be free from pride. Never think that samsara is real and the abode of permanent peace. If you do not cherish this idea jealousy, spite and pride will gradually disappear. The more a man observes generosity the more will the narrow limits of the darkness of the mind break open and so the mind will broaden more to usher in a glimpse of the true light.
