Kindness

Kindness
Right from the moment of our birth,

we are under the care

and kindness of our parents

and then later in life

when we are oppressed by sickness

and become old

we are again dependent

on the kindness of others.



Since at the beginning

and end of our lives

we are so dependent on

other's kindness, how can it be

that in the middle

we neglect kindness towards others?







H.H. The Dalai Lama
