Be gentle with yourself and others from "summary" of You Are Here by Thich Nhat Hanh

In our daily lives, it is important to remember to treat ourselves and others with gentleness. This means being kind, patient, and understanding towards ourselves and those around us. When we are gentle with ourselves, we can cultivate a sense of inner peace and happiness. We can learn to be more forgiving of our mistakes, and not be too hard on ourselves when things do not go as planned. Being gentle with others also allows us to build stronger and more meaningful relationships. When we approach others with kindness and compassion, we create a space for understanding and empathy to flourish. We can listen more attentively, speak more thoughtfully, and act more lovingly towards those we interact with. By practicing gentleness towards others, we contribute to a more harmonious and peaceful environment for everyone. It is important to remember that being gentle does not mean being weak or passive. Instead, it is a sign of strength and wisdom. When we choose to respond with gentleness, we are choosing to respond with mindfulness and compassion. We are choosing to break the cycle of negativity and conflict, and instead, create a space for healing and growth. In our fast-paced and often chaotic world, it can be easy to forget the importance of gentleness. We may be quick to judge, criticize, or blame ourselves and others. However, by cultivating a practice of gentleness, we can learn to approach life with more grace and understanding. We can learn to let go of anger and resentment, and instead, embrace love and forgiveness. So, let us remember to be gentle with ourselves and others. Let us practice kindness, patience, and compassion in all that we do. By doing so, we can create a more peaceful and loving world for ourselves and those around us.
