no exclusion…

“Could we exclude any from our compassion any more than the sun could exclude any from the warmth and radiance of its rays?”

showing up as love…

🌀

i think one of the challenging questions in this moment, with all the harm & suffering that is going on, is “how do we show up as love in our world right now?”

there is no doubt in my mind that this moment is demanding that we respond with love. as Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio said on the stadium billboard, “the only thing more powerful than hate is love.” it would be well worth our time to discern what such radically inclusive love looks like & then do it & be it, for the benefit of all who are suffering.

racism is profane & in opposition to life…

🌀

the President’s latest action, in a long line of racist actions, is not surprising. what remains surprising, but probably shouldn’t be, is the effort by so many to dismiss or minimize it. 

we must be clear: 

racism is in opposition to life. it denies our interdependence & life’s greatest beauty & benefit, which is its diversity. racism is profane. it denies & disrespects the sacredness of others. there should be no excusing or minimizing that which opposes life itself & denies the sacredness of another. rather, we should align w/ love, which recognizes the sacredness of others & celebrates the beauty of diversity which makes all life possible.

karma…

it all matters & we have such an incredible privilege & responsibility to work w/ our mind & heart, to make each new word & action an offering of love.
