Tell me about your Holy Book (Bible, Koran, etc.). What does it mean to you? What difference does it make in your life?

@GreenLime3141 I don't actually class myself as any particular religion, so I don't have a holy book. But I do believe in God, angels and heaven 💖💖 I think it doesn't matter what your religion is, what's important is  to always have faith and hope💖💖 gives you a giant tiny hug 💗

@GreenLime3141 I like the Dhammapada by the Buddha. It speaks in common language about things that ordinary people like myself can relate to. 

"Not the wrongs of others, or what others have done or have not done one should consider, but what has been done and not done by oneself. Just like a beautiful flower, which has colour, but lacks fragrance, so are well-spoken words fruitless for the one who acts not (on them).  Just like a beautiful flower, which has colour, and has fragrance, so are well-spoken words fruitful for the one who does act (on them). Just as from a heap of flowers one might make a lot of garlands, so should many good deeds be done by one who is born a mortal.
