And lovers kiss their own reflection and sigh.
Who feels a lovers kiss but love itself.
And the sun kisses the dawn ♥ jim atwell

Possession
“Greed is not defined by what something costs; it is measured by what it costs you. If anything costs you your faith or your family, the price is too high. Such is the point Jesus makes in the parable of the portfolio.”

“While we practice conscious breathing, our thinking will slow down, and we can give ourselves a real rest. Most of the time, we think too much, and mindful breathing helps us to be calm, relaxed and peaceful. It helps us stop thinking so much and stop being possessed by sorrows of the past and worries about the future. It enables us to be in touch with life, which is wonderful in the present moment.”
– “Peace is Every Step” by Thich Nhat Hanh
Body and soul
“Do not seek to have everything that happens as you wish, but wish for everything to happen as it actually does happen, and your life will be serene.”
– Epictetus

Stand as one
Lose your agenda
Lose your religion
Lose your political affiliations
Lose your brand name labels
Lose your hunger for money
Lose your nationality
Find your humanity
Free your mind
To be open
To be kind.
