Valerie Mason-John Quote

Reflect on why your life is precious. Ask yourself: What inspires me to live?   • Reflect on the fact that death is unavoidable, and on how you want to live your life. Ask yourself: How am I being in this life? What am I doing with my life?   • Reflect that actions have consequences, and on some of the consequences of your actions. Ask yourself: What actions have been a gain to my life? What actions have been a cost in my life?   • Reflect on the ocean of inevitable suffering, the waves of sickness, aging, and death that one day will come even to you. Ask yourself: What am I feeling right now?
