Precious Human Life

Start your morning right -

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 XIV Dalai Lama
