love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children,
to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you
without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness;
kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness
in your warm greeting." --
