Passion for humanity

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Cooperation comes from friendship, friendship comes from trust, and trust comes from kindheartedness. Once you have a genuine sense of concern for others, there’s no room for cheating, bullying, or exploitation; instead, you can be honest, truthful and transparent in your conduct

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

May Jesus, Mary and Joseph bless and protect all families around the world, so that love, joy and peace may reign within them.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

It’s good to remember that other human beings are like us. We are born the same way; we die the same way. While we’re alive it’s better to be able to trust each other as friends. We earn other people’s trust when we show a genuine concern for their well-being.

[Fountain Bookstore @FountainBkstore]

We had a lot of "showrooming" today: people taking pictures of books and buying them from #Amazon in the store and even bragging about it. This is not ok, people.

Find it here.
Buy it here.
Keep us here.

That is all.

Absolutely fascinating and solidifies why I practice medicine in the way I do.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We need friends and friendship is based on trust. To earn trust, money and power aren’t enough; you have to show some concern for others. You can’t buy trust in the supermarket.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Even more important than the warmth and affection we receive, is the warmth and affection we give. It is by giving warmth and affection, by having a genuine sense of concern for others, in other words through compassion, that we gain the conditions for genuine happiness.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We all want to live a happy life, so we have to learn to live together in trust and mutual respect. We do have differences of race, nationality, religious faith and so on, but these differences are secondary in comparison to our equality in being human.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Anger and aggression sometimes seem to be protective because they bring energy to bear on a particular situation, but what needs to be acknowledged is that that energy is blind. It takes a calm mind to be able to consider things from different angles and points of view.
