“Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. Every breath we take, every step we take, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. The
question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.”
― Thich Nhat Hahn

Compassion, in which all ethics must take root, can only attain its full breadth and depth if it embraces all living creatures and does not limit itself to mankind.
– Albert Schweitzer (via donotconceptualize) Via spiritual and cleanThrough my love for you, I want to express my love for the whole cosmos, the whole of humanity, and all beings. By living with you, I want to learn to love everyone and all species. If I succeed in loving you, I will be able to love everyone and all species on Earth… This is the real message of love.
– Thich Nhat Hanh (via lazyyogi) Via Second thoughts
