a heightened sense of community.
It draws our chins up and

the limiting fence of our own events,
activities and preoccupations.
The opportunity for a heroic gesture

you will notice the gentle touch

There are no small acts of kindness.
Every compassionate act makes large the world.

Which beliefs bring out the best in you?
Which beliefs hold you prisoner to yesterday
and limit your options for designing a great future?
Test your beliefs with as much objectivity
as you can bring to the subject.

or your communities opinions, rather than your own.
Those beliefs that withstand rigorous testing,
should become the foundation of your being -
your reason for living.
Take action on those beliefs.

and allow communion with the One.
