kindness is love in action.
where there is cruelty may we choose to embody kindness in our words and actions, reminding the world that there is love, there are those who continue to choose love, who choose to practice kindness.
may hearts open and wisdom arise.

#Pride flag at Honpa Hongwanji Hawaii Betsuin in Honolulu. The Jodo Shinshu #Buddhist temple was established in 1899. It now sits on land granted to the temple by Native Hawaiian Buddhist Mary Foster in 1906. The temple is the headquarters of Hawaii's largest non-Christian denomination. They officially petitioned the legislature to support same-sex marriage in 2010 and hold regular #LGBTQ awareness and support workshops.
