The Dokkodo (独行道 Dokkōdō; “The Path of Aloneness” or “The Way to be Followed Alone” or “The Way of Walking Alone”) was a work written by Miyamoto Musashi (宮本 武蔵) a week before he died in 1645:
- Accept everything just the way it is.
- Do not seek pleasure for its own sake.
- Do not, under any circumstances, depend on a partial feeling.
- Think lightly of yourself and deeply of the world.
- Be detached from desire your whole life long.
- Do not regret what you have done.
- Never be jealous.
- Never let yourself be saddened by a separation.
- Resentment and complaint are appropriate neither for oneself nor others.
- Do not let yourself be guided by the feeling of lust or love.
- In all things have no preferences.
- Be indifferent to where you live.
- Do not pursue the taste of good food.
- Do not hold on to possessions you no longer need.
- Do not act following customary beliefs.
- Do not collect weapons or practice with weapons beyond what is useful.
- Do not fear death.
- Do not seek to possess either goods or fiefs for your old age.
- Respect Buddha and the gods without counting on their help.
- You may abandon your own body but you must preserve your honour.
- Never stray from the Way.
This is a picture of the Chinese character for love.
“I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.”
-Mother Theresa
Syrian Arab Republic, 2012 - Children shelter in the doorway of a house, amid gun fire and shelling, in a city affected by the conflict.
UNICEF is currently participating in an inter-agency assessment of needs in conflict-affected parts of Syria and has requested US$7.4 million to – with governments, UNHCR and local and international NGOs – address the needs of some 40,000 refugee children, including those staying with host families, in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey. Support includes psychosocial assistance for children traumatized by the conflict to which they have been subjected or borne witness.
