We should recognize all  other beings as our kind. With this as a foundation, we should cultivate a LOVING-KINDNESS with everyone. If the other person is honorable and civilized as a basis we should cultivate a LOVE OR LOVING-KINDNESS so we all could be free of suffering. This basic belief of equality leads to a foundation of happiness. This is a strong belief of the Dalai Lama.

There are many levels of LOVE. One is where you have a respect, an admiration for another. That could be a colleague at work, a neighbor, a doctor that treats you well. The LOVING-KINDNESS can be expressed by stating “I LOVE THE WAY YOU.…..”.  That LOVE should not offend your mate.

Having a LOVE for a friend can be expressed by your appreciation of how you are treated by them. Saying that you “LOVE them so much for being in your life, and how their presence adds a positive influence that is so essential for happiness.”

Fill your HEARTS and MINDS with RICHNESS by eliminating all negative thoughts and express your LOVING-KINDNESS with everyone. Always repay any KINDNESS that is received. As one climbs the ladder of LOVING-KINDNESS, that climber will become invigorated from always SMILING.

To have constant happiness in life, one must possess different levels of LOVE for every human being. If someone expresses to you a sign other than LOVE, still show some empathy and forgiveness. Showing a concern for a stranger and getting a smile in return is very fulfilling.

TAKE CARE, STAY WELL, STAY HEALTHY. HAVE FAITH. THANK YOU.
