"When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.” 
- The Dalai Lama

May we nurture our gifts and employ them every day.

Today - every today - may we focus especially on feeding and using our love and compassion.

May this help others to feel loved and cared for and help us to develop inner happiness and peace.

With a prayer, a promise, and faith, 
Charlene 

PS - This photo of a dove is a favorite of mine. I took it a few years ago while on Sanibel Island. As I was about to enter Jerry's Market, I noticed the dove standing on a branch and holding a little twig in its beak.  The bird seemed to look directly into my eyes and hold its gaze as I paused to appreciate the beautiful moment. The connecting experience felt like a symbol of creation's oneness and a message of hope and peace. May peace, love, and kindness be with you. Wonderment too!

Use your gifts every day.
