Messages

Recently, in the last month or two I've gotten the following Chinese fortunes:

"There is a prospect of a thrilling time ahead for you"

"You will touch the hearts of many"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then I came across this message from the Dalai Lama on a card which I purchased, laminated and am taking with me in the Peace Corps:

"Never Give up
No matter what is going on
Never Give up
Develop the heart
Too much energy in your country
is spent developing the mind
instead of the heart
Be compassionate
Not just to your friends
but to everyone
Be compassionate
Work for peace
in your heart and in the world
Work for peace
and I say again
Never Give up
No matter what is happening
No matter what is going on around you
Never Give up. "
--H.H. the XIVth Dalai Lama
