Beginning today

Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

God gave us

God gave us 

Grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed

Courage to change the things which should be changed

and

Wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.

Feelings

Even though each of us is only one person, consider the effect that is created when the energies of our hurt, hate, bitterness, fear, sorrow, anger and resentment resonate with all the other people in the world who are experiencing the same feelings. What transpires when our negative energies combine with everyone else's? . . . If enough of us are suffering and everything we feel, think, say and do is projected outward, how does this affect the world around us?"
