thebuddhistmind:

We are asking a much more fundamental, deeper question: Why is man against man? Aren’t you against somebody? Aren’t you violent? And you are the whole of humanity. I know we like to think we are separate individuals, private souls—but we are not. You are the rest of mankind because you suffer, agonize, are lonely, depressed like all the rest. So you are basically, fundamentally the rest of mankind. You are humanity, and you are, whether you like it or not, in the global sense.

Here’s a gentle reminder to live life with a gentle balance. Don’t push yourself so hard that you completely spiral out of control. Don’t keep going until you’re only running on fumes. Take care of yourself, respect your limits, and recharge when you need to. ~na
