My daughter who survived the Oakland Ghost Ship fire noted recently the amazing outpouring of love and concern from friends near and far. I was overwhelmed with all these good hearts reaching out to support her and her friends who were among the lucky ones.
It is funny that in tragedy we somehow open up and offer our best (or at least better) selves to the world, especially to those who have suffered.
If only this could be our normal state–to live in and from such love and compassion.
This the goal in meditation and yoga: to live progressively more in and from this space of the heart and to bring this into our lives and into that of others.
