I will radiate love and good will to others that I may open a channel for God's love to come to all. --Paramahansa Yogananda
Our spiritual well-being is hindered whenever we isolate ourselves, whenever we withhold our care and attention from strangers or a friend. During these moments, our self-centeredness cuts off our connection to our Higher Power, causing peace to elude us and fear to set in.
The converse is also true.
Whenever we selflessly express love and genuine concern for others, we can know the presence of God and can be exhilarated by that knowledge. In this, we have freedom.
No one else controls our thoughts or our decisions to give unconditional love and genuine attention to others. We are in charge. It is up to us to keep the channel always open, always freely flowing. Our spiritual health is our responsibility and it's an easy one to handle. The only requirement is that we offer love and good will to others.

These are beautiful words
words to live by.
I came from an atheist home
Like climbing a ladder
I overcame their lack of love
their selfishness
their closed minds.
What I feel today, the love I can freely give.. grew inside me, by me.
It's a warm, wonderful, comforting feeling.
Knowing you, feeling your friendship.. enhances this
incredibleness.

Love that, Mel!

I remember reading one time that the only real sin is selfishness, and it does seem like that's the well from which all other sins spring.
Freedom to express love and concern for others....Yes!!! Yes!!! It does one's heart good. :)
