Just like you, each person wants to live. The same motivations drive us. We breathe the same breath, drink the same water, walk the same Earth. We are all connected, literally and figuratively.
This is how we practice Yoga off of our mat. We stop, observe, and choose our next action with integrity and compassion.
(When saying the words, focus on the individual you are
frustrated with.)
Just like me, you are seeking some happiness in your
life.
Just like me, you are trying to avoid suffering in your
life.
Just like me, you have known sadness.
Just like me, you want to be loved.
Just like me, you were once an innocent child.
Just like me, you are a spirit on a journey.
