Spotlight In Kindness: What Makes A Compassionate Man?

My husband and I live on the fourth floor. A while back, we noticed that someone always brings up our mail deliveries and leaves them right at our doorstep. After many months, we realized that it was a man that we least expected to do this, who lives across from us. Although many cultures associate compassion and empathy with women, so many inspiring men also amplify kindness every day. How can we foster more compassionate men? The thoughtful article at the end provides a great perspective. –Guri

Oh For Crying Out Loud

Weeping, then laughing. The power of love came into me, and I became fierce like a lion, then tender like the evening star.

– Rumi –

Oh For Crying Out Loud

“Death has been visiting my life a lot in this past year. During those times, I have frequently heard Mary Elizabeth Frye’s well-known poem, ‘Do No Stand At My Grave and Weep.’ This morning as I was lolling abed, I began naming my departed-beloveds in my mind, calling their sweet faces to mind and silently speaking their names one by one. This is one of the ways I honor them and deal with their absence. In the midst of that familiar ritual, I ‘heard’ a distinct voice speaking into my mind. This is what it said…” Barbara Mcafee shares more in this heartfelt piece, that includes her song, “Oh For Crying Out Loud.” { read more }
