Tiny Buddha

Lori Deschene is the founder and site editor of Tiny Buddha - simple wisdom for complex lives. Here's how she describes her blog:
"Buddhist ideas underlie much of what gets published on the site. Kindness, compassion, mindfulness, selflessness, and non-attachment are common themes. However, you’ll also find posts about living out loud, finding your purpose, and pursuing your dreams. Tiny Buddha is a little bit Buddhism, but also a lot of wisdom from all religions, traditions, and cultures."

I started scanning the headings of her blog in order to find one entry to present here. And as it happens most of them struck a cord. I suppose it shows how much of our life worries and questions we ask ourselves are pretty universal. So, in the end, I decided to go with the one, that originally brought me to her website:
