A Gift

Often what I need manages to find me. I opened a book last night and this was on the page. Compliments of Swami Sivananda.

The best thing to give
your enemy is forgiveness;
to an opponent, tolerance;
to a friend, your heart;
to your child, a good example;
to your father, deference;
to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you;
to your self, respect;
to all men, charity.

  3. It really “spoke” to me, Barbara. Happy week-end to you, Ginger. We’re heading home to see my mother and step-father. I can’t wait. I’ve missed them.
