What helps people get along better than to enjoy their company?

What encourages your family better than to laugh and smile?

When we see someone who seems unloving, they may not feel safe.

When someone doesn’t feel safe, they may not feel loved.

When we relate to people who do not smile and laugh, they may not be content.

When those around us do not seem happy and peaceful, loving and safe, they need us to give to them.

Let us make it our calling to help, inspired and be open to others.

Let us give love to those who seem lacking in love.

Let us share our peace with those who seem discontent or fearful.

Let us share our joy with those who seem unhappy and serious.

We never know what is needed unless we pay attention.

We may misunderstand when we misinterpret others’ behavior.

We may misjudge others’ intentions when we do not see what is really needed.

We may make gross mistakes by assuming the underlying motivation of others behavior or words.

Be awake and aware.

Pay attention to what is being said and done.

Listen to your own feelings and inner voice.

Respond to all things with love and peace.

Remember, you cannot go wrong when you respond to all thins with loving kindness.

You cannot make a mistake when you smile with encouragement and support.

You cannot frighten or upset others with you listen with respect and seek to understand.

You cannot hurt another by being respectful and sincere in your desire to offer peace.

Those who sincerely care, seek always for a path of peace and love.
