Practice In a Busy Life
Be Busy Yet Happy, And Tired But Joyful
We have to be busy in that we need to use our limited lives and precious time to build up our wisdom and merit, by giving of ourselves to serve, help and take care of others. In Buddhism, we're busy for ourselves, so even if we've gotten nothing in this life, we'll still have gained merit and the benefit of wisdom. Therefore, we'll feel tired but very happy for having the opportunity to be busy.
