Societies can be sunk by the weight of buried ugliness.

Social distance makes it all the easier to focus on small differences between groups and to put a negative spin on the ways of others and a positive spin on our own.

Making choices that improve things for all of us on the planet is an act of compassion, a simple act we can do any time we go shopping.

True compassion means not only feeling another's pain but also being moved to help relieve it.

Scheduling down time as part of your routine is hard but worth it, personally, even professionally.
