A man is seated at the top of a mountain holding his arms such that his hands are raised above his head. Next to the man is a dog. Text over the image contains a quote from Buddha that reads "Your work is to discover your work and then, with all your heart, give yourself to it." This is followed by a response quote from Tom Collins that reads, "And then, when you discover that it is no longer your work ... Rinse. Repeat." This image is attached to a post on how to apply Buddha's wisdom in the 21st century.
