My religion is love

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

The Dali Lama

when you get to the center of it all

after you dig through all the pages of all the tomes

and listen to all the words of oh so many teachers

you will find that there are just some people

who embody what you want to be

who glow with the Spirit

who are lit up from within

when you are with them

you find

you are more,

you wake up

to who you really are

and then you realize

that what makes them who they are

is kindness

deep rooted

persistent kindness

the source of which

is in the very nature

of the Sacred One

they love
