A friend without love
Charity without compassion
Devotion without truth
Prayer without faith
Learning without wisdom
Progress in life without proper conduct
Friendship from one without beauty in his heart and face
Finding the Way Home – A Journey of the Spirit
A friend without love
Charity without compassion
Devotion without truth
Prayer without faith
Learning without wisdom
Progress in life without proper conduct
Friendship from one without beauty in his heart and face
Our mind is so fast
it travels the world
in a second.
It is always
way ahead of our heart
peeking around each corner.
Our heart is a
patient traveler
He just plods on.
He doesn’t have
the quickness of mind
nor the cleverness.
But wherever he walks
there is a beauty
and flowers grow.
It’s hard to explain:
I would really like to
follow the mind.
But, just see how
this other wonder
has filled my life
Do not wander about trying to make the world peaceful.
If everyone would make his own life peaceful, the whole world would have peace.
Do not be impatient under any circumstances; it will destroy your life.
Stop, think, analyze.
Act with patience and wisdom and you will see peace in your life.
If you truly become good, all lives will show respect to you.
You won’t need to go around advertising your worth.
When a flower blooms and sends out its fragrance, all the noses that pass by will smell its sweetness and enjoy it.
Honeybees and insects will even come from far away in search of it.
In the same way, when the flower of your heart blooms and the fragrance of God’s truth emanates from it, whoever has a good heart and good intentions will recognize that fragrance.
