Sewing Seeds of Compassion
Marcos Tristao writes:The image of the child musician crying was classified as one of the most emotional photographs of modern history.
This photo was taken of a 12-year-old Brazilian boy (Diego Frazzo Turkato), playing the violin at the funeral of his teacher who rescued him from the environment of poverty and crime in which he lived.
In this image, humanity speaks with the strongest voice in the world:
“Cultivate love and kindness in a child to sow the seeds of compassion. And only then you will build a great civilization, a great nation “…
Sowing the seeds of compassion, as so to build a great nation. What a powerful message.
Good people everywhere are hoping that the zeitgeist of the Trump era was just a short-term disturbance in an otherwise decent society. Too many people bought into a culture of hate, indifference to one another, and the celebration of ignorance. Now we are in a position to leave all that behind.
