“You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection” says the Buddha.
It is important to first love oneself, nurture the soul and spirit. For through the nurturing of one’s own mind, body and soul can we tender the soul of the world.
May each one of you discover how precious YOU are to YOU and thus to the world this New Year.
May the NEW YEAR be a harbinger of love, joy, tranquility, caring with compassion for all sentient beings within you and me and everywhere.
