My Religion Is Kindness....
If only more people lived by these words....I wonder what this world could be like?
Today we went to see the Dalai Lama speak at GM Place. It was a really amazing experience. They also had a ceremony where he became an honorary Canadian citizen (only the 3rd person to ever receive this status). He was a little bit late coming on stage and Kevin Newman, the anchor man for Global National, was the poor guy left trying to stall and entertain the crowd while we waited until someone started singing "Oh Canada" and pretty soon the whole stadium was singing it. It was such a moving moment.

It was very inspiring. He has written a number of books if you're interested in learning more. The main thing that he stressed was that compassion is the key to a meaningful life.
