CHRISTIAN PSYCHOLOGY
Loving thoughts do not stay small. Once the mind chooses love as its teacher, what it thinks increases without end, until its gentle ideas are as countless as the lights of heaven. Whatever is given from love multiplies rather than diminishes, and reaches every corner of experience it touches.
No part of the mind is left outside this blessing. When one thought turns to peace, it does not bless itself alone; it blesses all the seeming others, for in truth there are no separate ones. The mind that lets love multiply within it finds that in blessing itself it has blessed everything.
Seed: the loving thoughts the mind brings forth, which increase without limit once love is chosen as their source Stars of heaven: the boundless multiplication of a single loving idea, too many to number once extension begins Countries: the whole field of experience the blessing reaches, every corner the mind's peace comes to hold Nations of the earth: the seeming many the mind imagines as separate, all of whom share the one blessing because none are truly apart

What would travel further than I think if I just started it?
Goodwill does not run out when it is spent. Offered to one person, it widens by itself until it includes everyone, including you.
What is well planted in one person grows through the family, the village, the country. The small thing cultivated at home does not stay at home.
Save one life and you have saved a whole world. There is no small kindness, because no person is only one person.
