I have been so surly the past several days, and for no tangible reason.

Sad, lonely, and full of fear.

So I remembered a buddhist saying that I learned while I was in teacher training. There are several versions. This is the one I know, and I want to share.

May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness
May all beings be free from suffering and the causes of suffering
May all beings never be parted from freedoms true joy
and
May all beings dwell in equanimity free from attachment and aversion

I think this is beautiful, and truely wish this.

Peace
