Hey Man!

Hi Everyone, Thank you for reading my blog! I wanted to say hi to you another way!



Never Give Up

No matter what is going on
Never give up
Develop the heart
Be compassionate
Not just to your friends
But to everyone
Be compassionate
Work for peace
In your heart and in the world
Work for peace and I say again
Never give up
No matter what is happening
No matter what is going on around you
Never give up

-His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

The Bridge Builder

An old man, going a lone highway,
Came at the evening, cold and gray,
To chasm, vast and deep and wide,
Through which was flowing a sullen tide.
The old man crossed in the twilight dim;
The sullen stream had no fears for him;
But he turned when safe on the other side
and built a bridge to span the tide.
"Old Man," said a fellow pilgrim near,
"You are wasting strength building here;
Your journey will end with the ending day;
You never again must pass this way;
You have crossed the chasm, deep and wide
Why build you the bridge at eventide?"
The builder lifted his old gray head:
"Good friend, in the path I have come," he said,
"There followeth after me today
A youth whose feet must pass this way.
This chasm that has been naught to me
to that fair-haired youth may pitfall be,
He, too, must cross in the twilight dim;
Good friend, I am building the bridge for him."
