Fairness & Justice
by DW Green — October 26, 2016
Compassion is fair.
I offer what has surprised me when thinking of fairness and justice: that life is not fair, but unending in its capacity to change us; that compassion is fair and feeling is just; and that we are not responsible for all that befalls us, only for how we receive it and how we hold each other up along the way.
Live today. Remove all blame from your vocabulary. Catch yourself when you find yourself using your past history as a reason for your failure to act today, and instead say, “I am free now to detach myself from what used to be.”
Yep. Life is life, and it unfolds on its own accord. We can only control our reaction to what happens to us.
