the msn of spirituality

  • Jul. 10th, 2009 at 7:41 AM

Thanks to people re-taking that old "what religion are you?" quiz, I rediscovered beliefnet. It's like the MSN of spirituality and religion now.

Take, for instance, this slideshow about kindness. It follows all the design tropes of a "10 ways to incorporate day-glo into your winter wardrobe" piece. Except it's about something else.

Speaking of kindness, I liked this take on generosity...
The Buddha said, “If you knew as I did, the power of giving, you would not let a single day pass without sharing.” We all have something to give: it may be material, large or small, it may be a smile, or an attentive conversation in the elevator. Perhaps you let a stranger get ahead of you on line, or give a co-worker a small gift, or write a late-night note of appreciation. Any act of generosity--material or of the spirit, small or large--is a meaningful expression of kindness.
