Kiss the Earth
Walk and touch peace every moment.
Walk and touch happiness every moment.
Each step brings a fresh breeze.
Each step makes a flower bloom.
Kiss the Earth with your feet.
Bring the Earth your love and happiness.
The Earth will be safe when we feel safe in ourselves.
--Thich Nhat Hahn (1926- ), Vietnamese Zen Buddhist monk, peace activist, teacher, poet, and writer

Sometimes
Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile,
but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.
