Let simplicity and humility be the characteristic traits of your soul. Go through life like a little child, always trusting, always full of simplicity and humility, content with everything, happy in every circumstance.
Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
Sister Faustina (1905-1938) was a young, uneducated nun in a convent of the Congregation of Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy in Poland during the 1930s
Niech prostota i pokora będą cechami charakterystycznymi twojej duszy. Przechodź przez życie jak małe dziecko, zawsze ufne, zawsze pełne prostoty i pokory, zadowolone ze wszystkiego, szczęśliwe w każdych okolicznościach.
Święta Maria Faustyna Kowalska
Siostra Faustyna (1905-1938) była młodą, niewykształconą zakonnicą w klasztorze Zgromadzenia Sióstr Matki Bożej Miłosierdzia w Polsce w latach 30. XX wieku.
Compassion for animals is intimately associated with goodness of character, and it may be confidently asserted that he who is cruel to animals cannot be a good man.
ants of Deliverance
A silent beauty
A Lightness carried within
Unseen, felt deeply

Note: I wrote this poem in the haiku style of poetry a few days ago and published it for the first time today, the 6th of February, 2025. The words came to me in a quiet moment.
Be at peace and be assured that no one, nowhere can possibly put an end to this collective dream of Mankind. Be not deceived and know deep within yourselves that your efforts were a loving gift to future generations. A gift of freedom given freely that will one day be appreciated and cherished and will live within the human heart.
