We need to think of each other as sisters and brothers, and to be concerned with each other’s welfare. We must seek to lessen the suffering of others. Rather than working to acquire wealth, we need to do something meaningful, directed toward the welfare of humanity as a whole.
In the past, our nations were more or less independent of each other. People lived in villages that were self-sufficient. So, the words 'we' and 'us' referred to a small circle of people. Today, the reality is different we are all brothers and sisters and we have to live together
Venerable Thich Nhat Hanh lived a truly meaningful life. I have no doubt the best way we can pay tribute to him is to continue his work to promote peace in the world. https://t.co/gsmm9KWf0A
Materialistic values cannot give us peace of mind. So we really need to focus on our inner values, our true humanity. Only this way can we find peace of mind—and more peace in our world. A lot of the problems we are facing like war and violence are our own creation.
From the moment of birth, every human being wants to discover happiness and avoid suffering. No differences in our culture our education or our religion affect this. From the core of our being, we desire joy & contentment. But so often these feelings are fleeting and hard to find

An actual worldwide pandemic couldn't stop you.
And it likely didn't stop you because if after an actual worldwide pandemic you are still an actor, it's who you are in your bones, and nothing will make you less of an artist.

Someone may be very rich and powerful but without any trusted friends they will never be happy. Someone else may be poor but if they are surrounded by trusting friends they’ll be happy. Therefore, taking care of others is the best way to fulfil our own interests.
