Daily Fix from Michael Lutin

[evile]

If you pummel someone down,
and beat 'em up,
you'll get immediate satisfaction,
but end up
feeling worse than they do.
Love and compassion are always
the path to happiness.
It is also vital, however,
to understand that some people
are more like
severely wounded animals.
Some of those wounds
cannot be healed
in this incarnation,
so it's best to show compassion
and let those beings
continue on their path.
always remembering
when dealing with
wounded creatures
to keep your distance,
or else.

I've known this one for a while. I jokingly refer to it as "The Buddha's Left Hand Path of Compassionate Avoidance"
