The most visible creators I know of are those artists whose medium is life itself. The ones who express the unexpressible– without brush, hammer, clay or guitar. They neither paint nor sculpt. Their medium is being. Whatever their presence touches has increased life. They see and don't have to draw. They are the artists of being

Pema Chodron's beautiful verses: Aspiration
Throughout our lives until this very moment, whatever virtue we have accomplished, including any benefit that may have come from our thoughts, words, and actions today, we dedicate to the welfare of all beings.
May the roots of suffering diminish. May warfare, violence, neglect, indifference, and addictions also decrease.
May the wisdom and compassion of all beings increase, now and in the future.
May we clearly see all the barriers we erect between ourselves and others to be as insubstantial as our dreams.
May we appreciate the great perfection of all phenomena.
May we continue to open our hearts and minds in order to work ceaselessly for the benefit of all beings. May we lead a life of generosity, virtue, patience, perseverance, love, and courage.

A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up to make new trees.
