APPROACH WITHOUT EXPECTATIONS

Today @ Deer Park Monastery, 

we are delighted and have no hurdle to overcome. 

Try to approach today without expectations.  Don't expect people to be friendly.  When they're not, you won't be surprised or bothered.  If they are, you'll be delighted.  Don't expect your day to be problem-free.  As problems come up, say to yourself, "Ah, another hurdle to overcome."  As your approach your day in this manner, you'll notice how graceful life can be.
