Buddhism Day by Day: Times When Life Seems Gloomy, Dull or Stuck Know Spring-Time Will Come
“There may be times when life seems gloomy and dull. When we feel stuck in some situation or other, when we are negative toward everything, when we feel lost and bewildered, not sure which way to turn — at such times we must transform our passive mind-set and determine, ‘I will proceed along this path,’ ‘I will pursue my mission today.’ When we do so a genuine spring-time arrives in our hearts, and flowers start to blossom.”
