The New Year and the Four Divine Abodes

I need to remember Loving Kindness; to treat everyone, everything, the way I want to be treated.

I need to remember Compassion; we are all in this together, what is done to one is done to all, the good and the non-good.

I need to remember Sympathetic Joy; to be happy when someone else experiences great good.

I need to remember Equanimity; to remain centered and not permit life's highs and lows to guide my mind.
