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.
@piersmorgan, many U.S. citizens believe as you do; your argument, though rational, will not change minds. The defense for #gunownership I hear is “The guns are out there and cannot be taken back. Outlawing guns means that only #criminals will have #guns. We need #selfdefense.”🙏 https://t.co/5I6AmvJcqQ
We can change our minds. We don’t have to give in to anger and hatred. Since compassion and anger cannot co-exist, the more we cultivate compassion the more our anger will be reduced.
Anger and aggression sometimes seem to be protective because they bring energy to bear on a particular situation, but that energy is blind. It takes a calm mind to be able to consider things from different angles and points of view.
