Love takes sides.

Love is gentle and kind and gracious and patient and not self-serving or boastful or proud.

But love takes sides.

It sides with the marginalized, abused, oppressed. It doesn’t shut them down or brush it aside.

Love sits with others where they are.

It is never too late to speak the truth about a wrong that has never been made right.

Numerous studies have documented that it is rare for children or adults to lie about abuse. When victims do lie about abuse, they tend to lie to protect their offender, not to get him or her into trouble.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Happiness derived from mere physical comfort tends to be shallow and fleeting. It fails to pacify anxiety and fear. Whereas if we have a calm mind it is effective in overcoming even physical pain, therefore we should not neglect the inner values that are a source of a calm mind.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Our lives depend on hope. If you have hope, you’ll be able to overcome problems you face. But if you’re without hope, your difficulties will increase. Hope is linked to compassion and loving kindness.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Warm-heartedness and compassion are conducive to our physical and mental well-being — anger, hatred and fear are not. This is why some scientists today talk about warm-heartedness ensuring a 'healthy mind and a healthy body'.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Friendship depends on trust and trust depends on having a strong sense of concern for the welfare of others. Be honest, truthful and warm-hearted. Make compassion the basis of your determination. Think of what the future can be, not what happened in the past.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

What is important is not so much how long you live as whether you live a meaningful life. This doesn’t mean accumulating money and fame, but being of service to your fellow human beings. It means helping others if you can, but even if you can’t do that, at least not harming them.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Time is always moving on; nothing can stop it. We can't change the past, but we can learn from it to shape the future. Stress on ‘us’ and ‘them’ is a source of conflict. We neglect basic human qualities of kindness and compassion. Let’s work together to create a happier future.

Overcome anger by peacefulness.

Overcome evil by good.
