The Dalai Lama has said that “compassion occurs only between equals.”
The capacity for everything resides within each of us.
The moment I have the thought that I am “better than, smarter than or more important than, my ability to be of actual use is gone.”
Will I look today at the capacity in all people?
See and observe those who approach each person with love, kindness and compassion.
Perhaps our greatest service is simply to find ways to strengthen and live closer to our goodness. This is far from easy. It requires an everyday attention, an awareness of all that diminishes us, distracts us, and causes us to forget who we are. But every act of service bears witness to the possibility of freedom for us all. And every time anyone becomes more transparent to the light in them, they will restore the light in the world.

Everything we do matters. We are either a contribution or a detriment.
Which will be the essence of your contribution today?
The power to repair the world is already in you. When someone blesses you, it reminds you a little – untying the knots of belief and fear and self-doubt that have separated you from your own goodness. Freeing you to bless and receive blessings from everything around you.
From the Heart of Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D.
Are you ready to be blessed and to bless others?
