The Sun My Heart
“We know that if our heart stops beating, the flow of our life will stop, and so we cherish our heart very much. Yet .. [l]ook at the immense light we call the sun. If it stops shining, the flow of our life will also stop, and so the sun is our second heart, our heart outside of our body.”
–Thich Nhat Hanh, “The Sun My Heart”
Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, “You owe me.” Look what happens with a love like that; it lights the whole sky.
