“Today I asked for the courage to be a holy troublemaker, a vessel of divine mischief. People far too often assume that there is no honour in spiritual guidance, no “lightness” in light but the truth is, it is we who are heavy serious and burdened by the fears that drape human existence. Let me be a vessel for divine mischief today.”~ Caroline Myss

Tender Words
Quote Tuesday
“What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world, remains and is immortal.”~ Albert Pine – attributed to Pine, but actually by Mason Albert Pike, from his book “Ex Corde Locutiones: Words from the Heart Spoken of His Dead Brethren” (Google Books link)

Compassion And Empathy
They have so much in common compassion and empathy
And those who do possess them are blessed ‘twould seem to me
For these are rare enough gifts in the Human World of today
Where many are poor and homeless and in life have lost their way
Those with empathy and compassion in words never put others down
And you never will find them amongst the judgemental of the town
They feel for the suffering of others more of their type we do need
For their kindness and generosity of spirit as good people they do succeed
Those with empathy and compassion always helping people in poverty
They help the homeless and the destitute and they help the refugee
If everyone were like them there would not be poverty and crime
And war that cause death and suffering would be of another time
But not everyone is like them which does seem sad to say
So for those with compassion and empathy let us hear the loud hooray.
Compassion And Empathy ~ Francis Duggan
