Sangha of Auspicious Companions

This Week’s DailyGood Digest

This week, we found solace in collective resilience, inner insight, and disarming experiences of goodwill.

We explored the notion of resilience through two nuns who “made every mistake” on the journey to providing much-needed childcare to kids in their neighborhood, as well as a healthcare pioneer’s formative experience with a parent’s schizophrenia. On an individual level, Cortland Dahl recounts a research study he participated in many years ago that shed insight on how pain is not the same as suffering. In the world at large, one group has engaged over 600 people in structured debates to practice listening to opposing opinions with respect and curiosity. Embracing the wisdom of life’s later stages, a former pilot reflects on 100 days as a caretaker for people with dementia. Beyond the human species, we marveled at the teamwork of whales, which also mirrored the collective support strangers showered upon a 78-year-old food delivery driver, reminding us how natural the quality of altruism is in life. These stories unleash tidal waves of hope and care, showing us that even amidst challenges, light finds its way through the cracks.
