Opening Our Hearts to Care for the Suffering of All Beings and Engage in Compassionate Action


A wise quote from William Sloane Coffin. I would also frame this as being related to the continuum that I humbly believe we humans are all on with ignorance, fear, and separation on the one end and consciousness, connection, and love on the other.

I am also reminded of the courage and support that it takes to be in this world with the eyes of our hearts open. And this is why we all need each other for inspiration, insight, and compassionate and loving support. Otherwise, in our ignorance, we may bring apathy or judgment to those who suffer, including ourselves, and unknowingly be complicit with systems and beliefs rooted in dehumanization, separation, and harm.

May we all inspire each other to be passionate seekers of truth, courageously peeling back layer after layer of our ignorance, indoctrination, and illusions. May we all increasingly embody the compassionate actions and love that we and our hurting beautiful world yearns for.

🙏 Molly
