Love your respect for yourself and others ...

It is not "us versus them,"

it is "us and them."

Love your respect for yourself and others 

And for all creatures 

and Nature,

and you'll see

 Respect and Love

Are a living presence!

All hatred driven hence,

the soul recovers radical innocence

-- W, B, Yeats --

Haiku by ONITSURA (1660--1738)

The leaping trout sees

far below, a few white clouds

as they flow

What is silently held is sacred and secret -- 

      There are certain experiences we have to honor as so special 

we just let them radiate in ourselves, 

and let the joy of its presence flow....

Delight thyself ... in the Lord; 

and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

Commit thy way unto the Lord; 

trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

Psalm 37:4, 5

"The noblest work of God is man in the image of his Maker; the last infinity of evil is so-called man, swayed by the maelstrom of human passion, elbowing the concepts of his own creating, making place for himself and displacing his fellow." Mary Baker Eddy Library

Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: 

for the end of that man is peace.

(Psalm 37:37)
