My religion is very simple .
My religion is kindness.
Be kind whenever possible.
It is always possible. -Dalai Lama

“The first element of true love is loving kindness. The essence of loving kindness is being able to offer happiness. You can be the sunshine for another person. You can’t offer happiness until you have it for yourself. So build a home inside by accepting yourself and learning to love and heal yourself. Learn how to practice mindfulness in such a way that you can create moments of happiness and joy for your own nourishment. Then you have something to offer the other person.” ― Thích Nhất Hạnh, How to Love

The more you understand, the more you love; the more you love, the more you understand.” ― Thích Nhất Hạnh, How to Love

When we feed and support our own happiness, we are nourishing our ability to love. That’s why to love means to learn the art of nourishing our happiness.” ― Thích Nhất Hạnh, How to Love

True love does not just choose one person. When true love is there, you shine like a lamp. You don't just shine on one person in the room. That light you emit is for everyone in the room. If you really have love in you, everyone around you will profit - not only humans, but animals, plants and minerals. Love, true love, is that. True love is equanimity. - Thich Nhat Hanh

”What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?"~ Jean Jacques Rousseau

Let no one ever come to you without leaveing better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile. - Mother Teresa

“Sometimes it’s more important to be kind than to be right.
Having an intelligent mind that speaks well is fine,
but a loving heart that listens well will be so much better. - unknown
