Be Your Actions

We have all heard of the ripple effect of the butterfly gently moving its wings somewhere in South America and the many other actions that exist because of the one butterfly.  We see the effect of the small ripples in the rivers, lakes, seas, and oceans and how the tiny ripples can become huge waves that crash over things and up against the coast line.  

Recently, I am hearing more stories from people who have been touched by small actions of kindness or thoughtfulness, and how that action helped change the person’s life for the better.  If you have the opportunity to do a small, kind action, do it!  You start the ripple.

Happiness-Freedom

The poster says:  The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart. —- Thich Nhat Hanh

**************************************************************

What does happiness feel like?  What does it mean?  Who has the most happiness?

The answer may be, “It depends on how much freedom you have!”

Over the years, I have posted quite a few blogs about happiness.  Here is a short list of some of the posts.

I Will Benefit Others

image

The poster says:

Every day, thank as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have precious human life, I am not going to waste it.  I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings.  I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others.  I am going to benefit others as much as I can.  —- Dalai Lama

What a beautiful mission statement to live by!  Would it not be wonderful if more people and more corporations could live in this manner?

Blessings,
