With this troubled world

Like a mother’s lap can offer comfort and relief when afraid, sad, hurt, or angry, the inner smile can do the same, not solving problems, but helping re-center us to be able to move forward.

This tumultuous world–with a pandemic, the assault on the Ukraine, and with social, racial, and gender inequalities–gives us beyond ample opportunities to practice the inner smile, to move forward with more ease and love.
