The Need of the Day . . .

The need of the day is a warm heart and some sense of humanity

"I do not judge"

Enlightenment!

I want more friends . . .

I love friends, I want more friends. I love smiles. That is a fact. How to develop smiles? There are a variety of smiles. Some smiles are sarcastic. Some smiles are artificial-diplomatic smiles. These smiles do not produce satisfaction, but rather fear or suspicion. But a genuine smile gives us hope, freshness. If we want a genuine smile, then first we must produce the basis for a smile to come

---The Dalai Lama

Good wishes are not sufficient . . .

In the present circumstances, no one can afford to assume that someone else will solve their problems.  Every individual has a responsibility to help guide our global family in the right direction.  Good wishes are not sufficient; we must become actively engaged

---  His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Compassion . . .

Compassion is the radicalism of our time

---The Dalai Lama

Prosperity

No nation can long prosper if it favors only the prosperous
