I do believe that most, if not all, of humanity's discord comes from a lack of compassion for ourselves. When this happens, we carry that lack of compassion with us and project it on all of life.
The light is beautiful this morning, and I think I shall go out in it.
Love and blessings to you all this morning and always.
Others call it lofty but impractical.
But to those who have looked inside themselves,
this nonsense makes perfect sense.
And to those who put it into practice,
this loftiness has roots that go deep.
I have just three things to teach:
simplicity, patience, compassion.
These three are your greatest treasures.
Simple in actions and in thoughts,
you return to the source of being.
Patient with both friends and enemies,
you accord with the way things are.
Compassionate toward yourself,
you reconcile all beings in the world."
~ Lao Tzu
