"From time to time, to remind ourselves to relax and be peaceful, we may wish to set aside some time for a retreat, a day of mindfulness, when we can walk slowly, smile, drink tea with a friend, enjoy being together as if we are the happiest people on Earth."

-- Nhat Hanh

This is the reason why each of us experiences a unique way of minding the world. (pp. 166-167)”
