I am reminded how we are offered all we need to overcome what we judge as evil or wrong.
To overcome evil does not mean we irradicate it, it means we learn from it and allow ourselves the gift of change.
Much like our emotions, once we stop fearing it the evil is transformed into a teacher for us to learn from and make the inner changes, we need to evolve into a happier healthier being.
I have moved away from reacting to tragedies and started to respond to them.
We are able to observe a difficult situation through the eyes of compassion, empathy, understanding, kindness, humility, and love.
This process begins when we create those characteristics within ourselves and allow ourselves the opportunity to practice our responses in all our affairs.
I am still working on this process, and I am grateful for every opportunity I get to respond to life with compassion, empathy, kindness, understanding, peace, humility, and Love.
May each of you allow yourself the gift of moving from reactions to responses.
You are Love and Loved.
