Jack Kornfield: If You Can Sit Quietly After Difficult News


If you can sit quietly after difficult news, 
if in financial downturns you remain perfectly calm, 
if you can see your neighbors travel to fantastic places 
without a twinge of jealousy, if you can happily eat 
whatever is put on your plate, and fall asleep 
after a day of running around without 
a drink or a pill,… if you can always 
find contentment just where 
you are, you are probably 
a dog.
 
Jack Kornfield
