Lovely to everyone We can't be lovely to everyone all of the time, but we can be lovely to someone, sometimes, and try to increase our loveliness every day. I don't mean to be saccharine - I just felt the need to really suggest a little kindness to everyone. We're all capable of it, even though it's hard to be diverted from protecting ourselves and our interests. But bloody hell, it's really lovely to be lovely. Everyone is worthy of love, because everyone suffers. Take a moment and be a bit lovely to yourself - smile for yourself, feel your own warmth. The better you can do that, the better you can give it to others. Though I don't want to keep on quoting, I think I should mention a few words from the Buddha: "Do not belittle your own goodness...Drop by drop the pitcher is filled". Every kind act helps someone to open their eyes and the kindness grows exponentially.
