Words of wisdom from one of the most influential Cancer persons of our time: the XIVth  Dalai Lama, born  July 6th, 1935:

“Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.”
Dalai Lama XIV

A Tibetan monk friend once commented that the Dalai Lama– despite years of  living in exile from his native land– is so joyous, he laughs so much, that it is actually difficult to carry on a conversation with him!
