To DO what we can … (07/11/17)

“This is what you shall do, my Friend:  Love the Earth and all the animals upon it, despise riches and give generously to every one who asks, stand up for all those considered “stupid” or “crazy”, devote your time and labor to others, protest tyrants and resist all tyranny, argue not concerning God, have patience with others and indulge them with acceptance and respect, go freely with uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read the leaves of Love in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book – and then fully dismiss whatever insults the Knowing in your Soul … Do these things and your body shall become a walking poem, your mind shall revel in the Calm of Truth, and your Heart shall soak deeply in the richest of lives.” ~ inspired by Walt Whitman

“Everybody can be great…because anybody can serve.” ~ MLK Jr.
