SET THE COMPASS OF YOUR HEART

From our discussion last week, I shared this with you.

Jack Kornfield writes in his a brief article entitled, "Set the Compass of Your Heart",   "No matter what situation we find ourselves in, we can always set our compass to our highest intentions in the present moment."   If you have enough awareness, you take the pause and ask yourself, "what is my highest intention in this moment?"
Recently I had an opportunity to use this skillful action.   It made all the difference.   I was not tempted to go back into the past and feel the grievances from before.    I let them go and set my heart compass.
Everyday we can set our compass... but we will only do this if we take the time to press the "reset button". :)
