When you stay present with your children, that's where abundance is. And when you stay out of their business, that's where everything you deserve in life is.

Life will bring us everything we need, to show us what we haven't undone yet. Nothing outside ourselves can make us suffer. Except for our unquestioned thoughts, every place is paradise.
