Harold Kushner
‘The gifts that one receives for giving are so immeasurable that it is almost an injustice to accept them.’

YOUR LIFE
When your life flashed before your eyes,
was it exciting enough to live again?
During your short time on this Earth,
did you bicker it away on superiority,
which won’t mean a thing when we die.
Instead it might leave unfond memories
When we might be better served
being kind to each other.
Graham Vivian Lancaster
‘It is one of the most beautiful compensations in life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.’
Ralph Waldo Emerson
‘Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for kindness.’
Seneca
‘Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.’
