Rooted

Action that arises from "should" is like a paper flower; it looks nice but contains no life. Love's doing is filled with sap; it is rooted in the silence of the heart, where there is no thought of "should" or "shouldn't." Our best work is not a "good deed." Our best work is our love.

"When you give, don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing." ~Jesus

"When a bodhisattva performs acts of charity, he has no concept of 'acts of charity.' " ~Buddha
