Buddha Speaks - Do One Good Thing

image

Don't worry if you feel you can only do one tiny good thing in one small corner of the cosmos. Just be a Buddha body in that one place.   ―Thich Nhat Hanh
Today is the day that you can start to do one good thing a day.  This is easy.  The list of good deeds that one can do is endless.  Each deed is a statement of love.  Each action is healing for the person that does the work.
  • Say thank you at least once.
  • Smile at someone.
  • Hold the door for someone.
  • Bring a co-worker or a friend a cup of tea. (Or coffee.)
  • Yield for the car coming on the freeway.
  • Throw some change into a cup for some good cause.
  • Throw some change into a hat for a homeless person.
  • Pick up a piece of garbage off the ground in a park area.
What would you add to this list?  What ever it is, that is the next good thing that you can do. 
I often wonder if doing one good thing was a law, whether people would still intentionally break it.
