You, just as you are, can meet life on its own terms, taking delight in that which is enjoyable without clinging to it while also living with what is difficult and unpleasant without contracting into resistance to it. To dance with life is to meet life on its terms to be at ease, even enjoy the ever-changing interplay without clinging. Philip Moffit: Dancing with Life page 91/92

What good is seeing-eye chocolate// A quoi bon un chocolat troisième oeil
What good's a computerized nose //A quoi bon un nez informatisé
And what good was cancer in April //Et à quoi bon était un cancer en avril
Why no good - no good at all// Et bien à rien de bon--- rien de bon du tout

Cell
What Makes an Elder? :
A head of gray hairs doesn't mean one's an elder. Advanced in years, one's called an old fool.
But one in whom there is truth, restraint, rectitude, gentleness,self-control, he's called an elder, his impurities disgorged, enlightened.
-Dhammpada, 19, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
