I just tapped into this super insightful website called Tiny Buddha. And though I have not gone through the entire resource, I did come across many purposeful articles therein. Several of which run under the theme of "50 Ways to..." . Now, I have to tell you, I am not a Buddhist, per se, but I certainly find much of the Buddhist philosophy, spirituality, and wisdom to have a depth of meaning and truth in my life. Buddhism allows me to constantly learn, open up to myself in new ways, and open up to the world around me. I would like to share with you a handful of my finds.... we are talking about a collective list of 250 to dos, so maybe I won't get to them all, but there is definitely something for anyone and everyone in each article.
For now, choosing one thing to immediately act upon from each article (in order from above), I have decided to:
- Start watching TED videos to learn about inspiring ideas.
- Volunteer at my local animal shelter.
- Exhibit much more patience, even when I am in a hurry.
- Make a simple sacrifice to spend more time with friends and family.
- Take up urban foraging.
Furthermore, I am looking forward to using these simple and creative compilations both as future reminders and as a collection of new ideas.
