When friends tell me their various reasons
\nfor being ‘unable’ to be full vegans,
\ndespite ‘knowing’ its rationale,
\nI reply by saying:
\n‘As long as you do your best.’<\/span><\/p>\n

In case they feel ‘pressurised’,
\nI hesitate to ask,
\n‘Are you sure you are already doing your best?’<\/span>
\nI just smile and encourage on…
\n‘As long as you do your best.’<\/p>\n

Dharma practice is doing the best we can
\nto improve ourselves, to help others,
\nto realise wisdom, to practise compassion.
\n‘As long as you do your best’ from moment to moment,
\nyou will truly become the best eventually.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nDharma practice means to do your best.<\/p>\n
