Life as opportunity

"Human birth is hard to attain and extremely precious. We must do something of value with the opportunity," Buddha.

Some days when doing menial tasks, and there are many to do, one can be tempted to think that we aren't doing important enough work -- at least I can think that. But, truly, there is perhaps no more important work than to develop our own potential as humans and to behave in loving ways towards ourselves and others. Providing care to someone with a terminal illness provides great opportunities for this type of growth.
