–Mahatma Gandhi

Choose a cause, a purpose, in a community close to home. Your mission is to start connecting, recognize our mutuality, offer deep levels of respect, give gratitude, and carefully observe what urgent kindness most needs to come next. Because attitudes are skills. And your spacious, nurturing attitude toward yourself and those in need is a real place to practice another form of self-care.

May we make it our work to observe and unify with things precisely as they are, usher in compassion, to understand and cultivate relationships with those who hold different views. Let us get curious. Why do others feel and think the way they do? Take a break from social media. May we courageously embrace our practices, our kindness, to remember why we’re here. We are equipped with a heart that can integrate the truth of suffering and opinions different than our own and yet remain empowered to serve with compassion, kindness, and equanimous action.

May you let this moment change you.
