[Quote No.28240] Need Area: Friends > General
"There are three kinds of persons existing in the world: one is like a drought, one who rains locally, and one who pours down everywhere.
How is a person like a drought? He gives nothing to all alike, not giving food and drink, clothing and vehicle, flowers, scents, and unguents, bed, lodging, and light, neither to recluses and brahmins nor to wretched and needy beggars. In this way, a person is like a drought.
How is a person like a local rainfall? He is a giver to some, but to others he gives not... In this way, a person is like a local rainfall.
How does a person rain down everywhere? He gives to all, be they recluses and brahmins or wretched, needy beggars; he is a giver of food and drink, clothing... lodging and lights. In this way a person rains down everywhere." - Buddha

[Quote No.28281] Need Area: Friends > General
"A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty." - Max Frisch

[Quote No.28288] Need Area: Friends > General
"[Poem:]
'I Dream a World':
I dream a world where man,
No other man will scorn,
Where love will bless the earth,
And peace its paths adorn.
I dream a world where all,
Will know sweet freedom's way,
Where greed no longer saps the soul,
Nor avarice blights our day.
A world I dream where black or white,
Whatever race you be,
Will share the bounties of the earth,
And every man is free.
Where wretchedness will hang its head,
And joy, like a pearl,
Attends the needs of all mankind-
Of such I dream, my world!
" - Langston Hughes

[Quote No.28292] Need Area: Friends > General
" 'Each Life Affects Another' :
We may not always realize,
That every thing we do,
Affects not only our lives,
But touches others, too!
For a little bit of thoughtfulness,
That shows someone you care,
Creates a ray of sunshine,
For both of you to share.
Yes, every time you offer,
Someone a helping hand...
Every time you show a friend,
You care and understand...
Every time you have,
A kind and gentle word to give...
You help someone find beauty,
In this precious life we live.
For happiness brings happiness,
And loving ways bring love;
And Giving is the treasure,
That contentment is made of." - Amanda Bradley

[Quote No.28497] Need Area: Friends > General
"In the same way that the safest drivers are defensive - taking precautions against the selfishness, mistakes and carelessness of others on the road, it is wise to do the same with other people in life's journey. Do not just assume others know what they are doing or will do the considerate, right thing to you. Be wary of others until experience proves their trustworthiness and even then continue to be careful for it is human nature for people to put their own interests first." - Unknown
