274. We can do this together. Things can get easier. Keep caring.
Mindfulness, meditation, compassion… The things Elephant focuses on… These are not separate from caring about politics, policy, public service. If we keep coming from a place of caring, of basic goodness, the boulder we are rolling up the hill will begin to roll down the next hill. We can do this together. Things can get easier. Keep caring. “Compassion fatigue arises when there's confusion and ego mixed up in [our caring]. Ego doesn't mean that we're bad people. We all have ego. We all get caught up. But if we can truly come from a simple place of caring, that's considered to be an in inexhaustible resource, because it's natural to who we are and to this world.” ~ Waylon H. Lewis
