“Our prime purpose in this life is to help others, and if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.” Dalai Lama
I love this message and also the photo of the little mouse on the palm of a hand. It reminds me of the little lady mouse that took up residence in our outside grill in September. Whenever we thought to clear out the nest, there have been babies …. We hope Mother Nature will encourage her to move back out to the woods in the Spring.
Namaste.

I love the wisdom of that quote . . . and these:
When asked, “what is the meaning of life,” the Dalai Lama replied simply: ”To be happy and to make others happy.”
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion. ~ The Dalai Lama
