It’s very simple; it’s not complicated. If you want to go home and complicate it with the mind and say, “Oh I can’t do this,” then you’ll never do it. But if you simply accept the truth and do, then it will come very quickly. Don’t let the mind complicate your life; always be simple.
Start off by doing simple acts of love.
To people and friends whom you haven’t said, “I love you,” to in a long time, send an email out tomorrow: “How are you? I’m just sending a loving thought to you.” You’ll see what happens. When you leave a shop, turn around and tell the person, “Have a nice day.” Then you’ll see how you change that person’s point of view and how happy they feel. Wear a smile on your face when you walk the street and see how many people will smile back at you. Have a wilful feeling that everybody should feel love today in a small way. It starts by you doing something in a small way to make someone very happy. If you know something is going to make someone happy, then go out of your way and make them happy. That is our duty as human beings.
Can you imagine if everyone lived with this principle?
Everyone you talk to would be trying to make you happy.
How beautiful is this?

Swami sai premananda, you are talking about people and friends, what about the family. What should be one's duty towards their family. Have you ever said these words to your family or did you ever make your family happy, did you ever express your love toward your father or mother. What is your thought about this principle.
Greetings Hansi,
Thank you for the comment. I'm not quite sure if your asking me this question but if you are, most certainly is my answer! I constantly tell my family I love them and that I appreciate them and try to do so in the moments that its not called for either.. As if the thought just struck me, at random, I send all my family, friends, acquaintances and sometimes strangers loving thoughts, words and heartfelt smiles.. I hope you do also as it really does improve everyone's environment... Namaste!
