Quote of the day

Feb. 28th, 2010 at 3:45 PM

Seen taped on the wall at work:

"Let us give thanks. For if we didn't learn much today, at least we learned a little. And if we didn't learn even a little, at least we didn't get sick. And if we did get sick, at least we didn't die. So let us give thanks." (Buddha)

Well, I don't know really if the quotation is attributed correctly or consistent with Buddhist beliefs, but it was something that caught my eye and made me chuckle and think at the same time, so I thought I'd share :)
