Thought for the day, Tuesday 1st October

“The greatest blessing is to be near good, wise, kindhearted friends. We can’t be happy unless we have a sane, healthy space within us and around us. We need a habitat this is beautiful and nourishing, one that gives us the safety and freedom we need..

Our community can be a family that sustains us. We can’t handpick everybody with whom we interact in our daily life, but we can choose to live among those who are kind and virtuous. When we can interact with those who are honorable and have great virtue, we’re creating conditions that will bring us lasting happiness.”

From Peace Is This Moment by Thich Nhat Hanh
