Personal practice Monday: Just a second!

By Beth Lowell, Senior Editor

Everything can change in an instant. Accidents happen, babies are born and people die. Some translations of the precepts begin with the words, “just for today”, but in reality, we have an opportunity to change our reality from within each and every second. A bad start in the morning can set the tone for the rest of the day. Or not. So just for this day, this hour, this minute, this second:


Do not anger
Do not worry
Be humble
Be honest in your work
Be kind to every living thing.
