AS WE ARE GROWING UP WE ARE TAUGHT THAT WE ARE ALL EQUAL, IN EVERY WAY. IN REALITY, WE DON'T ALWAYS SEE THAT BECAUSE WE ARE HUMAN AND JUDGMENTAL. MAY I OFFER THAT WHEN WE ARE SUFFERING, WE ALL SUFFER IN THE SAME WAY, WITH OUR FEELING HEART. CONSIDER THIS THE NEXT TIME YOU SEE SOMEONE THAT YOU DO NOT LIKE, OR SOMEONE OF ANOTHER RACE OR RELIGION OR BELIEF SYSTEM THAT YOU MAY DISAGREE WITH, THAT WE ARE ALL TRULY ONE LIKE A CIRCLE-WITH NO BEGINNING AND NO END. IN THOSE FEW MOMENTS YOU HAVE, TAKE A FEW QUIET BREATHS AND ASK TO BE GIFTED WITH COMPASSION FOR THEM, THE COMPASSION THAT YOU WOULD DESIRE FOR YOURSELF IF YOU NEEDED IT.
