“Interdependence
is a fundamental law of nature.
Even tiny insects
survive by cooperating with each other.
Our own survival
is so dependent on the help of others
that a need for love
lies at the very core of our existence.
This is why
we need to cultivate
a genuine sense of responsibility
and a sincere concern
for the welfare of others.”

~ Dalai Lama

“Cultivating care and concern for others
gives rise to a kind of inner strength.
No matter what difficulties or problems you face,
in this wider context
they’ll seem less significant and troubling to you.
The inner strength, self-confidence and courage
you gain by focusing on others’ needs instead of your own,
brings with it a deep, calm sense of satisfaction.”

~ Dalai Lama

It is just like the days.
An old day passes, a new day arrives.
