@matteosalvinimi Ma non ti vergogni ad aver messo per strada della povera gente, compresi donne e bambini indifesi? Non ci pensi quando sei al caldo nella tua casa lussuosa? Mi vergogno io per te! Chiedo scusa io per te a questi esseri umani! Sono esseri umani come me e te!
Tu non mi rappresenti!

Something as simple as a glass of water can be reason to be grateful. Think of how many people there are who don't have access to clean water.

...We take our loving actions, our acts of kindness and compassion. These are rewarded a thousandfold. Those who are so violent and filled with hate act in complete ignorance of the spiritual realms. There is an accounting.

[Dr. Brian Weiss @DrBrianWeiss]

Success is not defined by the opinions of others, not measured by wealth, power, or fame. Success is measured by acquiring wisdom, by the unfolding of inner beauty, by having a kind heart and being a good person. Success is determined by progress on your spiritual path.

Anger and fear undermine our immune system, while warm-heartedness brings peace of mind. Therefore, just as we teach children to comply with physical hygiene for the good of their health, we should also counsel them in a kind of hygiene of the emotions.

"Sit just to enjoy your sitting; you don't need to attain any goal. Each moment of sitting meditation brings you back to life." — Thích Nhất Hạnh

Leaving aside the perspective of spiritual practice, even in worldly terms, in terms of our enjoying a happy day-to-day existence, the calmer our minds are, the greater our peace of mind will be and the greater will be our ability to enjoy a happy and joyful life.

"Anger comes from the delusion that the world should be, or could be, the way we want it to be." ~ @dailyzen

We are intelligent, we have seed of compassion from birth. Using reason and intelligence we can enhance our sense of compassion and come to understand how its opposite, anger, is harmful.

I am one of the 7 billion human beings alive today. We each have a responsibility to think about humanity and the good of the world because it affects our own future. We weren’t born on this planet at this time to create problems but to bring about some benefit.

May you arise each day with a voice of blessing whispering in your heart...May you never place walls between the light and yourself...May you allow the wild beauty of the invisible world to gather you, mind you, and embrace you in belonging. (John O’Donohue)

[Thich Nhat Hanh @thichnhathanh]

We need to strengthen our foundation of joy and happiness before focusing on our suffering.
