Love like rain, can nourish from above, drenching couples with a soaking joy. But sometimes under the angry heat of life, love dries on the surface and must nourish from below, tending to its roots keeping itself alive.
~Paulo Coelho
Ask yourself how you’d want to be treated in a given situation, and make an effort to treat other people that way. Treat everyone you encounter as an individual worthy of basic kindness and courtesy. Treating people with respect makes the world a much more pleasurable place for everyone
Don’t discriminate. Be respectful to everyone – not just people you know or those you perceive as having a higher status than you. Many people save their respect for people upon whom they want to make a good impression, and they’re rude to everyone else. But there is truth in the saying, “You can judge the character of others by how they treat those who can do nothing for them or to them.”
Respect differences. Be respectful to people who are different from you, even if you don’t understand them very well. The differences among us are what make life interesting, and besides, you probably have more in common with people than you know. Even when you really don’t see where someone else is coming from, be courteous and civil. You don’t have to love everyone you meet, and you certainly don’t have to agree with them, but you can still show them respect.

ღThis means you should be as kind to those who aren't as "cool" as you as you are to the most popular people you know.
ღBe kind to people you encounter throughout the day who aren't always treated with respect. For example, homeless people are often overlooked or treated rudely, but they deserve the same respect and courtesy as anyone else.

In separateness lies the world’s great misery,
in compassion lies the world’s true strength.
A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service
and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
~Buddha
Love and hate are not real opposites, but love and fear are real opposites. Hate can become love very easily: it is really love standing upside-down. It is not very far from love, it is love energy in a disturbed state. The energy can be calmed, stilled. It is only a question of rearranging the energy, and hate can become love. And we know – it happens every day in life – love can become hate, hate can become love. You hate the same person and you love the same person. One moment you hate, another moment you love. So love and hate are two sides of the same coin, they are not real opposites. ~Osho
Watch the waves in the ocean. The higher the wave goes, the deeper is the wake that follows it. One moment you are the wave, another moment you are the hollow wake that follows. Enjoy both–don’t get addicted to one. Don’t say: I would always like to be on the peak. It is not possible. Simply see the fact: it is not possible. It has never happened and it will never happen. It is simply impossible–not in the nature of things. Then what to do? Enjoy the peak while it lasts and then enjoy the valley when it comes. What is wrong with the valley? What is wrong with being low? It is a relaxation. A peak is an excitement, and nobody can exist continuously in an excitement. ~Osho
At this moment 3.7 Millions are sleeping,
2.3 Millions are falling in Love,
4.1 Million are eating and
only cute people in the whole world
are reading my message and smiling…

Doing the right thing is an incredibly important thing. It will affect your friendships, your family, your community and your future. Little choices that we make can have big consequences on ourselves and others.
“Faithfulness is not doing something right once but doing something right over and over and over and over.” ― Joyce Meyer

Begin the day with a light heart.
Let all your worries be swept aside at night.
Smile a moment and thank God,
for every moment He cares for you all the way.

“Water is the only drink for a wise man.” ~Henry David Thoreau
The glory of the farmer is that, in the division of labors, it is his part to create. All trade rests at last on his primitive activity. He stands close to Nature; he obtains from the earth the bread and the meat. The food which was not, he causes to be. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
