One glance

I wait
with silent passion
for one gesture
one glance
from you.

The golden way is to be friends with the world

and to regard the whole human family as one.

Stay happy, healthy and safe – 18

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing:

the last of human freedoms –

to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances,

to choose one’s own way.

 

Viktor E. Frankl

Holding on to anger

Holding on to anger

is like grasping

a hot coal

with the intent of

throwing it at someone else;

you are the one who gets burned

Three monkeys

See no evil,

Hear no evil,

Speak no evil.

 

बुरा मत देखो,

बुरा मत सुनो,

बुरा मत बोलो.

 Three monkeys first emerged in Japan in the 17th century and was later adopted worldwide as a message of peace and tolerance due to Mahatma Gandhi’s visual metaphor of the three monkeys, with one of them covering his eyes, the second his mouth, and the third his ears.

The three wise monkeys (Japanese), sometimes called the three mystic apes. The three monkeys are Mizaru, covering his eyes, who sees no evil; Kikazaru, covering his ears, who hears no evil; and Iwazaru, covering his mouth, who speaks no evil
