He also offers insightful observations: the world has never complained about how busy it is, so it is we who are too busy love is real once you stop trying so hard it’s important to let children know that it’s okay to fail. Much of Sunim’s wisdom is common sense: learn from mistakes build in some personal time in your relationship with your loved one. Using modern colloquial language for concrete examples, he explains that when we slow down, we are no longer tangled with our own thoughts and pain. In mostly six- or seven-line stanzas, Sunim presents his philosophy on well-being and happiness in eight areas: rest, mindfulness, passion, relationships, love, life, the future, and spirituality. Sunim, a Korean Buddhist monk educated in America, confronts life’s challenges in this practical book, which has sold more than three million copies in Korea.
