The monk that hath goodness as friend, Who is obedient and respectful, Doing the behest of his friends, Mindful and thoughtful, May attain in due course The destruction of all the Fetters.

According to the Itivuttaka, the Buddha teaches that whoever chooses goodness as a friend, remains respectful and attentive, gradually frees himself from the “fetters” (the attachments that bind the mind). Today, spend a moment with someone who draws you toward the best, or be that kind friend yourself for someone.
