“ Greet everyone you meet with a warm smile. No matter how busy you are, don't rush encounters with coworkers, family, and friends. Speak softly. Listen attentively.

Lavish love on every living being you meet. See how different you feel at the end of the day. Sarah Ban Breathnach Publisher

Elizabeth Janeway Author
“ I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it. Abraham Lincoln 16th U.S. President
