Kindness

Everyday, think as you wake up,
today I am fortunate to be alive,
I have a 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
