Martin Luther King Jr. exhorted us, "Never succumb to the tempation of becoming bitter. As you press for justice, be sure to move with dignity and discipline, using only the instruments of love." At the worst times such an attitude may seem impossible...
May you be held in compassion.
May your pain and sorrow be eased.
May you be at peace.
May I be held in compassion.
May my pain and sorrow be eased.
May I be at peace.
...relax and be gentle. Breathe. Let your breath and heart rest naturally as a center of compassion in the midst of the world.
