Today’s Reflection: Dear God, Teach me to have compassion when in my garden. I know it’s okay to pull out pesky weeds, but why must I stomp on them, crush them, with so much joy afterward? Teach me to be forgiving. Amen.

Today’s Reflection: A special request – Every day, think as you wake up, “Today I am fortunate to be alive!
I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it.
I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart for others;
to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings.
I am going to have kind thoughts towards others,
I am not going to get angry or think badly about others.
I am going to benefit others as much as I can.” —Prayer of the Dalai Lama.
