Happy Thursday

Photograph taken by me a few weeks ago


It has been my experience that whenever one human being reaches out to another in compassion, a bridge is built. A bridge which leads out of despair, into the light of hope and the possibility that tomorrow will hold a few less tears than yesterday” ~Dr. Maithri Goonetilleke

Beginning the day,
I see that life is a miracle
Attentive to each moment,
I keep my mind clear like a calm river
Waking up this morning, I smile
Twenty-four brand new hours are before me
I vow to live fully in each moment
and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion
~Thich Nhat Hanh
