1. Still live with yesterday…

    Comment

    Why do we sleep when the next day we wake to still live with yesterday?

    Life is too short to be sad all the time, so laugh everyday, smile when you want to cry, love the ones that care for you, forget the ones that don’t, hang out with friends whenever possible, regret nothing because at one time it was everything you wanted, never backstab someone cause they will backstab you back, and just live life to the fullest because you only get one life. ~UnknownΒ Β Β

    Even though he may not act like it, a 1-year-old puppy is considered an adult! This is the equivalent to a human at 15 years of age. Not even old enough to vote, your pup is all grown up and ready for the world of adulthood! Source: SheKnows

  3. Love is too strong ♥

    28

    Love is too strong and life is too short. You have to love with your heart and live with your faith; you have to believe in yourself so nothing will put you down. You are an angel that god has laid down, He has created you not only because that is what He does but because He wants to watch you live HIS life you have to follow your dreams and get somewhere in the future ahead, if you make bad choices he’s going to take you back and send you to heaven or to hell. ~Abby Wainwright

  4. Heart that will love you

    Comment

    To let someone realize how special you are, try to stay away so that they miss you…
    BUT don’t stay away for such a long time that they will learn how to live without you.

    Find arms that will hold you at your weakest,
    Eyes that will see you at your ugliest,
    Heart that will love you at your worst,
    and if you have found it,
    You’ve found True Love.

  5. Think about that…

    Comment

    What is more painful?
    When a person whom you trust, hurts you?
    or the person whom you hurt, still trusts you?
    Think about that.

  7. Dog loves baby very much

    Comment

    Like humans, puppies are born without teeth. However, they can’t hear, see or smell! Puppies don’t open their eyes or begin to hear until they’re 9 to 12 days old. They can’t smell until three weeks post birth. Until then, it’s very important for the mini-puppies to stay close to mom and their siblings to eat and grow properly. Source: SheKnows

  8. An instrument of peace

    Comment

    “The most valuable possession you can own is an open heart. The most powerful weapon you can be is an instrument of peace.” ― Carlos Santana

    Someone who is angry is someone who doesn’t know how to handle their suffering. They are the first victim of their suffering, and you are actually the second victim. Once we can see this, compassion is born in our heart and anger evaporates. We don’t want to punish them any more, but instead we want to say something or do something to help them suffer less. ~Thich Nhat Hanh

     

  9. Playful parrot kicking kitty

    Comment

    The parrot is believed to be one of the most intelligent of all the bird species, mainly in the sense that parrots are able to replicate (mimic) the noises made around them. Some parrots are able to mimic modern sounds and human voices to almost perfection. One African grey parrot was found to have a vocabulary of more than 800 words!

    Nearly all of the different parrot species around the world are known to live for a long time, particularly in comparison to other species of bird (even other species of animal). The average lifespan of the parrot is around 60 years although it is not uncommon for parrots to be much older ages, as many parrot individuals have reached the age of 100. Source: a-z animals

Shantidevas’ Bodhisattva vows

My reflection

Should anyone wish to ridicule me and make me an object of jest and scorn why should I possibly care if I have dedicated myself to others?

Let them do as they wish with me so long as it does not harm them. May no one who encounters me ever have an insignificant contact.

Regardless whether those whom I meet respond towards me with anger or faith, may the mere fact of our meeting contribute to the fulfilment of their wishes.

May the slander, harm and all forms of abuse that anyone should direct towards me act as a cause of their enlightenment.

As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, so the wise are not shaken by blame and praise. As a deep lake is clear and calm, so the wise become tranquil after they listened to the truth…

Good people walk on regardless of what happens to them. Good people do not babble on about their desires. Whether touched by happiness or by sorrow, the wise never appear elated or depressed. ~The Dhammapada

Beauty in nature

A beautiful object has no intrinsic quality that is good for the mind, nor an ugly object any intrinsic power to harm it. Beautiful and ugly are just projections of the mind. The ability to cause happiness or suffering is not a property of the outer object itself. For example, the sight of a particular individual can cause happiness to one person and suffering to another. It is the mind that attributes such qualities to the perceived object. β€” Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

Nature is loved by what is best in us. The sky, the mountain, the tree, the animal, give us a delight in and for themselves. β€” Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

Our journey for peace
begins today and every day.
Each step is a prayer,
Each step is a meditation,
Each step will build a bridge.
