BECOMING A BRIDGE FOR OTHERS
"May I be a protector for those without one, a guide for all travelers on the way; may I be a bridge, a boat, and a ship for all who wish to cross (the water)."
—Shantideva, The Way of the Bodhisattva
One who dedicates their life to the well-being of others does so not through grand displays, but often through small compassionate acts that make life easier for those in need. Shantideva describes this path as an active commitment—one that lifts others up, carries them forward, and creates a safe passage through difficult times. Like a bridge, one who serves in this way does not judge those who cross, nor does a boat refuse to carry someone in need.
Supporting others does not mean taking on their burdens, but rather offering presence, strength, and clarity. A kind word, a listening ear, or a moment of understanding can be a lifeline to someone who feels unseen. Compassion, in its truest form, does not seek recognition—it simply provides what is needed, when it is needed. In fact, much of the time such acts go unnoticed and unrewarded.
A single act of kindness can change the course of someone’s journey. The guidance or reassurance you offer, however small, may be exactly what another person needs to move forward. Walking the path of service and compassion means embracing this responsibility with a heart that is steady, selfless, and willing to serve.
