'Twas a jolly old pedagogue, long ago,
Tall and slender, and sallow and dry;
His form was bent, and his gait was slow,
His long thin hair was white as snow,

The living should live, though the dead be dead."
Said the jolly old pedagogue long ago.

Once we control our capacity for love and happiness, the light has been turned on. . -Sharon Salzberg.
