                   Day 24 ~  February 22nd ~ Harmony

Quotes
“A spirit of harmony can only survive if each of us remembers, when bitterness and self-interest seem to prevail, that we share a common destiny.”
~ Barbara Jordan


“The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.” ~ Rabindranath Tagore
Reflection
We need to remember that we are all on this planet together. It is becoming increasingly crucial that we all work together and with each other rather than working against each other. Humanity is facing many challenges that require our best defense without us creating additional unnecessary problems between ourselves. The greatest catalyst of harmony is love. By making the choice to operate from a place of love and kindness we are contributing to a culture of nonviolence.

Affirmation
If I feel hurt or angry or feel that I have been violated in some way, gossip, judgment, and retaliation can only make matters worse. As I fully understand the impact of our connectedness today, I make living in harmony my priority.
Daily Action
Choosing not to engage in any form of gossip today contributes to harmony.  Choose to see the good in others instead of finding fault.  Spend the entire day without criticizing anything or anyone.  Look only for the good in yourself and others.

Action for Teens
Bring harmony today. See the good in yourself and others. Don’t gossip about others. Say only good things about others.

Action for Children
Choose to say only good and kind things to and about others.

Quotes
“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi

“I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities.”
~ Nelson Mandela
