A Precious Human Life

"Every day, think as you wake up,
Today I am fortunate to have woken up,
I am 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."
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　H.H. The 14th Dalai Lama
