A new path...

By Vichara


Gandhi once said, “An eye for an eye, makes the whole world blind”. Let’s say now, today, as we wake up and meet the world – A heart for a heart, makes the whole world see. By engaging in one simple act of kindness rooted in a compassionate heart, we can make a difference. One simple act will inspire another to another to another until it becomes a force and not a tiny voice, as some perceive it to be. By bucking the system of negativity we can take control of a world with a vision of love, patience and compassion.

Did you know?
In the argot of tramps and hoboes, a roll of clothes and bedding was called a "bindle," a word that probably originated as an alteration of the more familiar "bundle." "Stiff" itself can mean "hobo" or "migrant worker," meanings it took on in the late 19th century. About the same time, any tramp or hobo who habitually carried such a pack was known as a "bindle stiff." In Australia, a pack-carrying hobo might be called a "swagman."
