I Am an Emperor Penguin
“Emperor Penguin” | Anthony Satori
Emperor penguins are lovely creatures. They are smart and playful. They slide on their bellies in the snow, and they swim with the grace of a majestic bird when they are under the water. Emperor penguins mate for life. They know when they have found the one, and they stay together from that moment forward, forever. They don’t let anything come between them. They don’t let anything pull them apart. I think this is truly a beautiful thing. If you had the chance to go back in time, would you be like an emperor penguin? Would I? I’d like to think that we would. And if, by God’s grace, I ever have the chance again, I believe that I will. Because in my heart, in my nature, I am an emperor penguin.
The Movement of Thought and Feeling
“Black and Yellow Butterfly on Blue Flowers” | Anthony Satori
“Meditation is to be aware of every thought and of every feeling, never to say it is right or wrong, but just to watch it and move with it. In that watching, you begin to understand the whole movement of thought and feeling. And out of this awareness comes silence.”
– Jiddu Krishnamurti
The Importance of Leisure
“Chocolate Covered Ice Cream Bar” | Anthony Satori
“Together with a culture of work, there must also be a culture of leisure as gratification. To put it another way: people who work must also take the time to relax, to be with their families, to enjoy themselves, to read, to listen to music, to play a sport.”
– Pope Francis
