HI Suresh
Compliments of the Season and a Merry Xmas
AS always I enjoyed your thoughtful piece

This is very much within the Buddhist tradition to which I belong
I remain a Buddhist; not in its various institutional forms but more as a philosophical system

Warm regards

Dear Suresh, if only our schools and teaching anywhere would focus on kindness as daily practice. But we teach so much else, kindness as a daily is just not there. You certainly, wonderful human beings like Gerry Georgatos and Jenny Kaeshagen most certainly, but you are still the very few.

Deanna.

Well said Suresh.

A considered and insightful piece.

Often when I sit with people who are in the process of dying this issue often arises: Have I made a difference during my time on this crazy planet?

And the best way to make a difference is to simply extend kindness in your daily life. Just smile and be decent to your fellow human beings. And here is the real “rub”

You gain hugely from simply be kind. It’s actually very healing for the receiver..and the giver.

Thanks again. Great article.

we all ultimately end up in the same condition and manner so why not assist each other on that journey rather then kicking each other where it hurts the most
