Religion of Love

Be certain in the Religion of Love
There are no believers or unbelievers.
Love Embraces All.

Rumi

Forgive

Forging

Those who are enlightened never stop forging themselves.
The realizations of such masters cannot be expressed well in words or in theories.
The most perfect actions echo the patterns found in all of nature.

The Art of Peace

Warrior

The Way of a Warrior is based on humanity, love, and sincerity;
the heart of valor is true bravery, wisdom, love and humanity.

Emphasis on the physical aspects of being a warrior is futile;
for the power of the body is always and forever limited.

The Art of Peace 

Free

Letting go gives us freedom,
and freedom is the only condition for contentment and happiness.
If, in our heart,
we still cling to anything-----
anger, anxiety, the past or even our possessions-----
we cannot be free.

Degrees of Separation

The longer I'm alive the less I am concerned about national, ethnic or religious pride and tradition.
I think it all just divides us as human beings living on this planet together.
There is one race- HUMAN.
Why be so concerned about where one's ancestors originated from?
Do any of us have a choice in where we are born or what color our skin is?
Or, what our sexual orientation may be?

I'd rather take pride in what I've accomplished, what mark I leave on the world and how I treat fellow humans.

The rest........?
I'm really over it.
I really do not care.
