My lasting impression of being with Thay is his love for us, for all beings, for this life, for every small thing, and how he had such humility.

How lucky are we to have walked the earth in this time and place when such a man, such a bodhisattva, graced our world.  How lucky to have received such beautiful, accessible, loving, and compassionate teachings from such a master as this, and to have been left a legacy of countless books, Dharma talks, monks and nuns, and sisters and brothers also committed to walking this path together. 

"The tears I shed yesterday have become rain."
