WORD FOR THE DAY9gratefulness.org)
Monday, Dec. 28
If there is anything I have learned about men and women,
it is that there is a deeper spirit of altruism than is
ever evident. Just as the rivers we see are minor compared
to the underground streams, so, too, the idealism that is
visible is minor compared to what people carry in their hearts
unreleased or scarcely released.
Dr. Albert Schweitzer
Amara Rose commented on Ron Alexander's blog post 'Release the Deep Spirit of Altruism that You Carry in Your Hearts
'Thank you, Ron! Yes, we need to extend ourselves in empathy to our spiritual siblings everywhere ... allow all the points of Light to shine effulgently. Many blessings on your good work, Amara
Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV
