Good Vibes
Kindness, caring, sharing and helping are fundamental to a life well lived, at least for the folks in our tribe… As we see it:
- “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?” - Martin Luther King, Jr.
- “If you could only love enough, you could be the most powerful person in the world.” - Emmett Fox
- “Love has to spring spontaneously from within, And it is in no way amenable to any inner or outer force. Love and coercion can never go together; but, though Love cannot be forced on any one, It can be awakened in him through love itself. Love, is essentially self-communicative: Those who do not have it, catch it from those who do have it. True Love is unconquerable and irresistible; And it goes on gathering power and spreading itself, until eventually it transforms everyone whom it touches… To penetrate into the essence of all being and significance, and to release the fragrance of that inner attainment for the guidance and benefit of others, by releasing in the world of forms, truth, love purity and beauty… This is the sole game that has any intrinsic and absolute worth. All other happenings, incidents and attainments can, in themselves, have no lasting importance.” - Meher Baba
- “When you cease to make a contribution, you begin to die.” - Eleanor Roosevelt
- “Whoever performs ONLY his duty is not DOING his duty.” - Bahya Pakuda
- “In the long run, we get no more than we have been willing to risk giving.” - Sheldon Kopp
- “It takes courage for a person to listen to her own goodness and act on it. Each person has inside a basic decency and goodness, and when she acts on it, she is giving a great deal of what it is the world needs most.” - Pablo Casals
- “In nothing do men more closely approach the Gods than by doing good to their fellow man.” - Cicero
FYI, although multiple sclerosis put an end to my decades in music, I can still contribute, because the web allows us to connect online for the highest good of all involved. Thank goodness!
God, but I love this internet, don’t you ?
