The word manifests as the deed;
The deed develops into habit;
And habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings.
As the shadow follows the body,
As we think, so we become.
—Guatama Buddha, Dhammapada

Thank you, Ute.
This is breathtakingly thought provoking beautiful! Blessings for such a great Blog! Love your Blog!
And I love your courage, Grandma.
Your Blogs brighten my days while taking my mind off my little buddy chronic pain. Some days I skip over commenting and reading your Blogs and save them for a day when the pain is unbearable and I just lose myself in your Blog which really takes my mind off the pain. Keep blogging your excellent blogs! I truly enjoy them!
I like it a lot, thank yo u! 🙂
