Five of us among five hundred thousand. One of many, many of one. Each brought our own baggage, each with expectations spoken and hidden. Each wondering what the day would hold. Compassion begins from the inside out.
Compassion begins in the heart and reaches it's destination by changing people and events.
Compassion is a means drawing towards a conclusion. Compassion is grace lived out in the real world. A Mighty Fortress is our God, voices from every walk of life, representing all the good and bad there is in this world. I felt the gentle spring of morning tears as the Native American played Amazing Grace in total silence while feathers gently swayed with the breeze lifting my spirit up towards heaven. For a lifetime that afternoon I cried tears of joy.
