Why is it Good to do Good? an to ti tooooooo

I was explaining to my roommate Maria that i didn't know how to start my monthly email,
I 've been working on it for a long time, and it has been very difficult to talk about what is good when sometimes we can't even differenciate good from bad.

I was explainning to Maria that while some people are sure that the health care bill is good
other people say it is not good. The Terrorist Think it is good to bomb. Some others think it is good to bomb Terrorists.
***I mean these good people want to kill "those bad people" and
<those bad people think they are good people and
 want to kill 'these bad people that also think themselves to be good>***

Maria told me -"Good Luck natta" this is a very difficult topic and i don't really have to much to say"
"buena suerte!"
:/

I like this photo because the policeman is trying to save a Chinese man that wants to commit suicide in the street of BUSH. What if this man did something very horrible? at least the police is going to give him the chance to live and repent... just wondering.













I think is not good to wish death upon ANYBODY no matter how bad the person has been.

I know that not everybody has the privilage and ability to rise wisdom and compassion in their mind.
Very evil people have not got the good fortune to overcome their own greed,
hatred, and selfish minds. We should feel lots of compassion for them.
I believe that good people are good people with everybody (including with bad people)
since goodness comes from within and it reflects the inner cultivation of each individual.

Let me give you the case of Iranian-american scholar Hale Esfandiari who was unfairly arrested
and spent four months in solitary confinement. When one of her guards noticed she was unable
to hold a knife to peel her fruit, because her arthitris was acting up, the guard peeled it and cut it
for her. A human gesture in an inhuman place!
I'm sure this guard is kind with all prissioners, including real evil criminals.

No matter how good people we are or we "think" we are, the path of goodness  (yes it's about
thinking and helping others and aliviate their suffering) involves that we are continuously correcting our selves
ALL THE TIME, it's about appologizing and forgiving ourselves and others ALL THE TIME.  Real life is about correcting and correcting
all our wrong point of view, catching our selfishness, bad thoughts, careless actions
and relax create a good moment when we may want to bark. Thus we can cultivate a natural Self control.


No matter how famous, how pretty, how talented, how successfull, how wonderful, how organic, how vegan, how activist, how GOOD we think we
are, the best is to rely on humbleness. Every minute every second we have to forgive tons of offenses, believe me, every second in fact every nanosecond the most horrible things are happening in the name of good. 

I know that we all have different religious backgrounds. My mom is Christian, Samuel and Robert are Jewish, Lamine is Muslim...i am Buddhist,  but all of the religions believe in heaven and that life is a journey that take us step by step toward the goal of Heaven. To reach Heaven is beyond our Power. Our goal is to try to get there.
You may not like religious matters, that's ok, but let's all follow the core universal principles (not kill, not lie, not steal, not do to others what you don't want others to do to you, etc...) and live with the highest moral intelligence.

   天國世界 This picture photographed by the Hubble telescope, at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, clearly show a vast white city floating eerily in the blackness of space. When I showed this to my mom, she said it is Jesus' heaven, I know that the Jewish are going to say it is the Jewish Heaven, the same thing with Muslims, I am Buddhist and we believe this is one of the levels of the western paradise. But... you know what? THIS IS EVERYBODY's  GOOD PERSONS HEAVEN (This is heaven for ALL GOOD humans).

I confess that one of my passions is to dive into the internet and look for articles about people, "ordinary people", that their only thought is to DO GOOD to others, I found this so attractive, so magnificent, so unique, so POWERFULISIMO.
Let me share with you a little list of: little do-gooders (I have to thank Mr. Greg Mortenson for this list)
Madame et Messieurs, señoras y señoras, ladies and gentlemans, with you: {{{DRUMS PAm ki taa doc doc TA TAAAAAAN}}}}

 ＊ Zach Bonner. He was 6 years old when it all started, during Hurricane Charlie he took his little red wagon door to door in his neighborhood to collect clean water for the victims. After four months, he had collected 27 truck loads of supplies. "Zach likes doing charity work,” his mom says. He liked it so much that by the time hurricanes Katrina and Rita hit, Zach’s family needed to set up a foundation because of the amount of monetary donations he was taking in. They named it Little Red Wagon Foundation,
He　is　11 years　old　and today he starts a walk of 14 miles a day for around 179 days! to raise money and awareness for the 1.3 million homeless kids in the United States!!。

FUND a FIELD is a non- profit organization founded by Garrett and Kyle Weiss when they were just 15 and 13, respectively. The organization works to provide soccer fields and equipment to the under-privileged children of Africa. The FUNDaFIELD team, which consists of 32 kids mainly from Danville, California, comes up with some amazing ideas to raise funds for their project and have already been successful in funding about five soccer fields across Africa.

What i love about Ashley is that when she went to Afrika for vacations (11 years old) and saw the terrible situation, she went back to America and learned to speak Swahili and she studied hard to open her foundation.
VERY UNIQUE
