Meditations on God

You will have more energy if you are not wasting yours trying to prove others wrong.

Instead of fighting with others, love them.

Try to look on their misconceptions and misunderstandings with compassion.

They, like you, are not perfect.

In spite of how it may seem, most people are doing their best to be good.

But we are deeply flawed and extremely short-sighted creatures.

You may not change others by being more loving and tolerant, but you will be changed in a way that makes them not changing matter much less.
