The Compassion Collective:

Mother’s Day IS about Love. But it’s not about commercial, comfortable love that snuggles up and stays home—it’s about love that throws open the door and marches out of our homes, beyond our fences and neighborhoods and into the hurting world to feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, comfort the hurting, mother the motherless. Mother’s Day love is dangerous, revolutionary love that unites our one human family and reminds us that we belong to each other and that there is no such thing as other people’s children.”

Julia Ward Howe

“The broken will always be able to love harder than most. Once you’ve been in the dark, you learn to appreciate everything that shines.” ~ K.Douglass

Everything we experience in this world goes through one filter—our minds—and we spend very little time bothering to see how it works… As the Buddhists liked to point out, everyone wants the same thing— HAPPINESS— but we all go about it with varying levels of skill. If you spend a half hour on the cushion every day contending with your own ego, it’s hard not to be more tolerant of others.”~Dan Harris​ #10%happier
