Reflections during the last days of fast

Do not be content with showing friendship in words alone, let your heart burn with loving kindness for all who may cross your path.


If I love you, I need not continually speak
of my love--you will know without any words. On the other hand if I love you not, that also will you know--and you would not believe me, were I to tell you in a thousand words, that I loved you.

Abdu'l-Baha

(6 апреля) Пост уже закончился, но размышления продолжаются:

Abandonment of "a frivolous conduct" does not imply that a Bahá'í must be sour-faced or perpetually solemn. Humour, happiness, joy are characteristics of a true Bahá'í life. Frivolity palls and eventually leads to boredom and emptiness, but true happiness and joy and humour that are parts of a balanced life that includes serious thought, compassion and humble servitude to God, are characteristics that enrich life and add to its radiance. A Chaste and Holy Life
