A quote! George Bernard Shaw!

We got this quote a couple of days ago. Kind of interesting.. and a little Denis Leary-ish...remember that most yoga traditions operate under the belief that each person carries God or the "Almighty" within him or her, and you can see how we got this one from our teacher...

"This is the true joy in life: Being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one, being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it what I can. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations."
