Joy in Pain


Joy is something spiritual;

It does not come from your body.

One can be joyous even when the body is ill,

One can rejoice even while dying. Joy is something inner.

Pain and pleasure are both body-oriented;

joy is being-oriented.
From "The Little Book of Osho"

Dear Mitra,
I'm An, a colleague of Mrs Susan Marandi from Learning with Computers group.
I'm an Argentina nglish teacher and I've been visiting all your blogs. By now,I'm leaving this comment just to you. Soon I'll leave a comment on each one's blog.
I like yours very much perhaps because I'm an idealist too.
I always say "Do all the good you can to all the people you can as long as you can".
Teaching is for me my love and my path of life. A vocation, a profession and an art.
I wish you keep on growing.
Love,
An
