Another quote by the Dalai Lama

“Our good fortune is dependent upon the cooperation and contributions of others. Every aspect of our present well-being is due to hard work on the part of others. As we look around us at the buildings we live and work in, the roads we travel, the clothes we wear, or the food we eat, we have to acknowledge that all are provided by others. None of them would exist for us to enjoy and make use of were it not for the kindness of so many people unknown to us.”

Let us remember that we are all connected and not separate from anybody else on this planet, and be thankful for what we have. This is true not only for material goods, but also for our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Any person close to us that is unwell on any level will also have an effect our own state as well –  as will we effect them.  Let us be aware and responsible for our own wellness, and help others do the same. If you are a caretaker or healer, bodyworker, doctor, or therapist, make sure you get to “recharge your own batteries” as well, go for treatments or bodywork sessions, and take care of yourself.
