If you wish to heal your own sadness or anger, seek to heal the sadness or anger of another. Those others are waiting for you now. They are looking to you for guidance, for help, for courage, for strength, for understanding, and for assurance at this hour. Most of all, they are looking to you for love.
Life does not wait: Whether we spend our lives meaningfully or not, the time will be used up moment by moment.
Patience as we wait to take action is a kind of compassionate mind. Impatience on the other hand can be a source of failure.
