The important thing is to keep working for understanding (of self) to the very end. On any journey, we cannot hope to reach our destination if we stop halfway. Likewise, if despite our good fortune in meeting and embarking on the unsurpassed way of compassion, we stop halfway, all the efforts we have made thus far will have been in vain; we will not be able to attain our goals or help others reach theirs, both of which are critical to greater understanding for all.
Peace and Love, Jim
