This is a wonderful quote by Su Tung-Po' I had on my calendar this morning when I turned the page to a new day. It sent a calm, focused feeling straight through me that carried me through the day.
"Strike your own evening drum, morning bell,
then shut the door.
Lamp burning low by a solitary pillow;
gray ashes where just now you stirred
the stove to red.
Lie and listen to raindrops splattering the
window."
Su Tung-Po'

I am listening to the rain drops right now. I am listening with a more loving ear, now that I have read this.

When I read this poem I felt such calm to surge through me; it was great. Thanks Christina! ;)
