So many ideas of what is right and wrong, good and bad, and we love to think we are in the right camp, the good camp. Perhaps the better questions are: What is kind? What is generous? What is compassionate? What is beneficial to the world and does not add suffering? This is the path we can dedicate our lives to in the short time we are here. A path of non-harming, of loving-kindness, of empathy and peace. A path of compassionate action.
