Daily Dose of Dharma - Shifu's blog: Some people saythe time when you reach the peak of your life is also time to head downhill; therefore, you should stay away from self-indulgence and arrogance. The hardest time in life, however, may also be a turning point for victory as long as you can take a deep breath and overcome the difficulties. There hasn't been one enlightened person in this world who succeeded without going through all kinds of hardships and torment.

Where there is a will, there is a way, and this is the way to follow. ~ Master Haikong
